This is my first effort to run VirtualBox.
I seem to have the basics going.
I'm trying to do a network install of 11.1 for now.
I downloaded the net install ISO.
When I start the new VM it asks for the location of
the ISO and boots the CD.
I select that install option on the screen, and it
says kernel loading.
After it loads, it gives me a warning that I don't
selected on my desktop.
When I say ok, it goes to a black screen and stays
have 32-bit color there (for at least
several minutes.)
Am I doing something wrong. (FYI: I'm running the 2.6.36 kernel an vboxdrv module currently. I'm going backdown to the normal kernel and see if that helps.)
Thanks Greg
I reinstalled the kernel and modules from the official 11.3 repos.
Created a new VM and tried to install 11.1 network CD. Same behavior as before.
Is this supposed to work?
yes it's suppose to work. i have installed 11.3 fine with vbox. what version of vbox do you have?(helps if you have the latest 4.0) and is the host openSuse too? if so what version(kernel)?
Yes, host is opensuse 11.3 I tested with both 2.6.34 and 2.6.36. Both from opensuse repos.
and have you turned on 2d/3d acceleration? i mean what are the settings on the vm?
Both off. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
