Installing Physical Windows 7 as a Virtual Machine

Hi Friends,

Here's my problem, For company rules I should have Windows 7 professional 64 bits on my computer :'(, but the own of my my machine is a Debian 7.1 whezzy (64 bits).

I was trying to make a Virtual Machine from my physical partition of Windows on my debian.

First of all:

I made:

Code: Select all

 $mkdir Vmdell
 $cd Vmdell
 $usermod -a -G disk,vboxusers pepito
 (restart session)
 $chmod 666 /dev/sda*
 $sudo apt-get install mbr
 $VBoxManage internalcommands listpartitions -rawdisk /dev/sda

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *        2048      206847      102400    7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda2          206848   166209535    83001344    7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda3       166209536   197459967    15625216   83  Linux
/dev/sda4       197462014   625141759   213839873    5  Extended
Partition 4 does not start on physical sector boundary.
/dev/sda5       197462016   201365503     1951744   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda6       201367552   625141759   211887104   83  Linux

 $VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename /home/pepito/Vmwin/win7.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sda -partitions 1,2 -mbr /home/pepito/Vmwin/win7.mbr

Then create the virtual machine with IO Apic enable and RAM grater than 1024.

Then when system is starting for first time it needs the installation cd for repair, then of it It should start normaly, but here's the problem I have a blue screen (attached pic).
