Re: Problems installing linux
When you setup the guest did you use the right template?This requires an x86-64 CPU,
Post the guests log file ( as an attachment )

Re: Problems installing linux
I would change the template to debian ( not debian-64 ) and see if it helps.

Re: Problems installing linux
Then I have to say you might not have the 32-bit version of the install media. Your PC is capable of running 64-bit guests so try debian-64 and see if it will boot.
