Hi Tejas,

I mean the first of your comment: mouse pointer is unresponsive, so that
I am unable even to login.

I also tried to use remote desktop function of VirtualBox (I am using
the Sun latest version by the way), thinking it could be the solution,
but again the pointer remains unresponsive.

Currently I am downloading M7 DVD, to see if I can repair the installation.

BR,

Marco
