BOOT FAILED Virtualbox

Post by babagirll »

hello guys! I would like to show you the problem that I've found using virtualbox.
I'm on
4.9.0 kali linux (32 bit) [host]

5.1.12-dfsg-2 Virtualbox [installed]

I tried and I tried to start a Windows(32bit) VM ...everytime showing me "Boot failed" and then an EFI output.
I also found out that my Intel processor doesn't support vt-x and firstly I was afraid which that was the cause of the issue...

but now I'm reading online that "not always" is necessary vt-x for run a VM *(true?)...
In fact it doesn't show me the vt-x error message(like for example it does if I try MAC OS guest)...

So, I thank anyone who wants to help me to solve this problem.
I've attached the output screenshot and the log file.

You are using the Debian fork. We don't support forks here. Please visit the Debian forums, or install real VirtualBox and ask again here.

To add to your misery, installing an Apple OS on non Apple hardware is a breach of the Apple copyright licensing terms, so we can't allow discussion of that here either. Important notice regarding Mac OS X as Guest.

Overall this topic is a big fail. I think the best thing is to lock it.
