Bug and Reboot System in VM Virtual Box.

[kayode12]

Hi,

I am new to using Virtual Box. I installed Linux, SQL plus and SQL Developer on my PC and everything was working perfectly. Only for the Virtual Box to start acting funny few days ago, it refuse to reload and boot without no error message.
I deleted the user and installed a new one but when the Linux Enterprise is about to complete installation, it tell me a Bug in my Anaconda that I need to Debug. If I click on ok it takes me to a reboot section where is request for a command to rebooot. I typed in Reboot but the screen remains as it is. If I click on Debug , it takes me to another screen asking Pbd (?).

Can someone please help me out on what to do.

Post the guests log file ( as an attachment ). Right click on the guest in the Main Manager then click show log. Save and post as an attachment. Compress if it is too large to post.

Attached where?

Please attach logs, do not paste them - which leads to them being truncated due to the message size limit. Note the "Upload attachment" tab below the text box when you compose a message. If you zip the text then you can also be sure that the attachment will be accepted.

Have you rebooted the host and then before you start any other program tried to do your install?

[kayode12]

I typed ''REBOOT'' but nothing happened. I had to shut it down and start all over again but I still got stuck at the same point with same message.

Host = the PC that you are running VBox on ( in your case Windows )

[kayode12]

Windows 7, Accer PC, 1TB HDD

[Perryg]

That's nice but did you reboot the host?

[kayode12]

whats the command to reboot the host. I typed REBOOT but nothing happened.

[Perryg]

You have a Windows host. Just reboot it. I am not talking about the guest here.

[kayode12]

I already did that before but still at the same place after rebooting the windows

The log shows a huge lag in the hosts hard drive. All I can tell you is there is something either wrong with the drive, you are running a program that is extremely disk intensive on the host, or the guest has a real problem. All indications at this time are this has nothing to do with VirtualBox.
