virtualbox.org

HI,
I´on on host macos High sierra 10.13.3. For the last two month i´m having problems with my Linux mint 18.3 guest system. I´ve have tried different versions of Vbox , done most of the recommended uninstalls and i still can´t boot with 3D enabled. I have installed both latest extension pack , Vbguest 5.2.6 and also latest test 5.2.7.

It will boot with 3D disabled but when 3D is enabled it will not (see attached log if it helps).

I have an imac with 32GB and 8 core processors. For my Vbox I use 16G memory, 900Gb external usb3 SSD disk and configured 64 video memory.

Any idea why it does not boot.

Thanks,

But you didn't update the Guest Additions (GAs). And the GAs ISO that you have mounted? That's the 5.2.6 one. Usually you do *not* download a standalone GAs ISO unless specifically told to do so, like with the 5.2.7 GAs. See the Downloads page, see the "Important" paragraph...

00:00:01.211069 File system of '/Users/david/Downloads/VBoxGuestAdditions_5.2.6.iso' (DVD) is hfs
00:00:12.202800 VMMDev: Guest Additions information report: Version 5.2.6 r120293 '5.2.6'

PS. "OSX Guests" doesn't mean "I have a problem with a guest on my OSX". It literally means "OSX Guests". I'm moving your post to "Linux Guests"...

Thanks Socratis.
The 5.2.7 GA fixed the problem. Thanks for the update. It´s booting properly with 3D enabled.
