virtualbox.org

Hi,

I am running Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty). I just installed Virtualbox 5.0.2 r102096 on my PC. I downloaded Windows 10 32 bit ISO from Microsoft website.

I did restart the linux host after I installed vbox 5.0.

I created a new virtual machine giving it basic stuff (1G DRAM, 32G HDD). I attached the iso file to the SATA controller as optical drive. When I start the VM, it shows up with Windows logo, and just stays there. It does not proceed to any installation steps.

I looked at the Vbox.log. After it says "BIOS: Booting from CD-ROM...", I don't really see any error message. All I see is a few lines prefixed with "GUI:".

I am a bit stumped here. Where do I look for any other logs? Any help?

Thanks.

-- Providing a log.
With the VM fully shut down, right click it in GUI. Select "Show Log" and save "VBox.log" (ONLY) to a zip file. Attach the zip here.

I had the exact same issue. Here is a partial copy of my log.

Mod edit: pasted (and truncated) log deleted.

Sorry here is the second half of the log.

Kyu, did you not see mpack's post right above yours?

No one wants to try and read lengthy logs in a browser.

My apologies here is a copy of the log in a zip file.

No problem and much better.

If you could edit your 2 previous posts and delete the log info from them life would be perfect.

@kyu: please do not hijack someone else's topic with your own problems. The OP said that he has an Ubuntu host, you have a Windows 10 host. Those are two very different environments.

I will however briefly suggest that you test the MD5 sum on the ISO, and also consider whether the 32bit guest template you selected is correct.
