Hi
I have a new HP-Computer. When I bought it there was only windows vista on it. Now I installed the newest Ubuntu 8.01 on it and the virtual Box. Now I thought I can run Ubuntu then start the virtual box and then boot win visat in the box. everything looks fine but I always get the message:
"FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System halted."
Any suggestions. Do you need any other Information? (How do I get that information under Linux?)
Thanks.
boot medium
