Virtualbox Guru Meditation error when starting guest after updrading to 5.0.18

Post by farkas »

On my Trusty host
I have upgraded VBox from
Version 5.0.16 r105871
to latest version from
virtualbox-5.0_5.0.18-106667~Ubuntu~trusty_amd64.deb

After the upgrade I was notified about extension update too.
Updated it from VBox manager UI to 5.0.18r106667.

After this update I was not able to start any of my VM, windows, linux.

I have received the Guru Meditation error for all of them.

After this removed 5.0.18, and reinstalled 5.016.

VM guests working again - although the extension remained the newest 5.0.18r106667

Without knowing exactly what the guru message was not one can tell you what it might be.

Minimal information needed to be able to help

I bet if you compress it you can upload it.

Thanks!

I will wait for the next maintenance release - using the 5.0.16 until then.
I hope the LSILogic SAS controller will be corrected in the next release.
