| #8910 | obsolete | Failed to Move Image from Linux to Windows : Failed to Open Virtual Machine | |||
| Description |
Copied Virtual Machine directory from a Linux host to a Windows host. I got the following error when trying to "Add" the machine. Failed to open virtual machine located in D:/VirtualMachines/OEL6-x64/OEL6-x64.vbox. Medium 'D:\VirtualMachines\OEL6-x64\OEL6- x64.vdi' cannot be closed because it is still attached to 1 virtual machines. The Details box contains: Result Code:

This is VirtualBox 4.0.8. Image was created under 4.0.6 but I tested it on 4.0.8 before moving it to the new machine. I have uploaded the .vbox file. I have tried removing the DVDImage tag and the SharedFolder tag. See Wiki discussion at http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=41630 |

| #3523 | fixed | SATA (ncq?) timeouts. works, then suddenly ceases: hangs guest. | |||
| Description |
VirtualBox 2.1.4, openSUSE 11.0 host, Gentoo AMD64 guest, no guest additions yet because I haven't got far enough in the Gentoo install to be able to boot into the guest directly. When I tried unpacking the portage tgz, it'd go for awhile ( seconds ), then suddenly hang. The error message was timeouts, and alternated between lines ending in "ncq" and lines ending in "DRDY". Remembering that the documentation had said that SATA shouldn't be relied-on, I tried again with a boot disk of IDE type ( lspci shows that SATA is likely to be *drastically* faster than IDE: SATA can move 8k per get/put, whereas IDE moves only a few bytes, it seems ) IDE works, but if IDE emulation is speed-crippled, and I'm needing a virtual machine for *video editing* then either I gotta get that fixed, or I gotta get that fixed, if you know what I mean. Current Host: AMD64 x2, 1GHz, 4GB, Raptor, ext3. Current Guest settings: 1 core ( I've no idea how to set this: NO documentation on it? ) 2560MB 128MB video CD, HD ACPI enabled IO APIC enabled AMD-V enabled 3D acceleration enabled ( at least it would be, if guest additions get installed ) VMDK 8GB ( 2GB swap, 6.whatever GB / ) ALSA/ICH PCnet-FASTIII no cereal ports 1 shared folder, that will work later when guest additions get in... no remote display. BTW, the *reason* I'm installing Gentoo is simple: repeated installation of MS Windows requires calling MS to explain oneself to 'em. I don't have a phone, nor do I ever want one again ( silence is glorious -- meditation & training are much easier without being continually interrupted ) Therefore, it makes sense to discover all the bugs & blockers, and their workarounds, *before* installing the OS I *have* to run in a virtual machine. ata1.00: status: { DRDY }
res 40/00:00:00:00:00...etc...00:00/00 Emask 0x4 (timeout) ACPI shutdown hangs, of course so killing the thing with the Big Red Switch becomes necessary... last line displaying is
Machine/Close hangs, destroying VirtualBox's windows ( the rectangles are still there, but they're blank ) using KDE to kill the machine window, now VirtualBox ( no longer blank ) says Gentoo was "aborted" BTW, seeing AMD Athlon on a 440FX is -shudder- odd... As an aside, SOMETHING in VirtualBox is deciding how many CPUs to present to the guest, but I can't find *any* indication of how to control that in the documentation, or through the VirtualBox.org search, and the Help section isn't a help-section, it's a Trac install that doesn't have any content except for the Trac help ( maybe it was intended that the Help section of VirtualBox.org be help for the Trac system, but if so, then where's the VirtualBox Help section? peculiar user-interface/information-design ) If someone could please document, in the manual, simply & quickly, how to set the number of presented CPUs, so one doesn't get hit with stupid Re-register Windows Or Else scenarios when one upgrades the CPU, or something? I dearly want this project to be the most configurable, fastest, solidest, and best, so I'll help however I can, but I can't code, so pls keep any requests simple and sysadmin-ey, eh?

| #3534 | invalid | No documentation on HOW to create a 2CPU vm, on a quad-core host... | |||
| Description |
G'Day, eh? I *need* XP x32 running, but live in Linux ( Dragon Naturally Speaking can't be installed, and correctly work, in anything other than XP x32 or Vista x32, and Vista's DRM means I don't want /it/ going on *my* system, if I can help it ) I *also* need to edit AVCHD video in a MS Windows app ( Premiere Elements 7, closest to pro video editing without $$$ or a mac ), and that *requires* a dual-core CPU. The host is a quad-core Phenom, 2.4GHz, 4GB ECC DDR2. Some snippets of code from VirtualBox seem to indicate that number of CPUs *is* settable, somehow, but the manual doesn't say how, and VBoxManage --help doesn't say how, either. VirtualBox documentation *does* ( somewheres ) say that one can't allocate more cores to the vm than one has, and that if one allocates 'em all, then there aren't any dedicated to the host, iirc. a) IS it possible to get the guest to see a dual-core vm? ( or any arbitrary # of CPUs, up to the actual # ) b) HOW does one do it, and c) can this tidbit of info be put into the manual, please? As I say, for me it's kind of crucial ( either I get this to work, or I get gouged by VMware for the dual-core vm ) ( I tried linux guests, to discover how many cores were being passed through, both without AMD-V & with AMD-V, because installing XP, then changing the "machine" it sees means begging permission from MS to re-activate it ) Thanks in advance |
