[arch-general] Complete virtualbox crash starting Archlinux guest after kernel + xorg updates
Guys, After updates today (kernel 3.2.13 and xorg updates) and rebuilding vboxdrv, virtualbox crashed at the grub screen booting an archlinux guest with the message it was a fatal crash and that logs had been prepare and the .png of the screen at the time had also been saved in the VM directory. This is the first time I've seen a crash of this type. Anybody else experience this? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
I did. It was only once though, plus after a restart of Virtualbox it was all fine - I guess it was just a one-time thing. On 27 Mar 2012, at 11:51 PM, "David C. Rankin" <drankinatty@suddenlinkmail.com> wrote:

Hi virtualbox kept complaining it would not be able to boot my 64 bit machine, since it disacknowledged my processor's AMD-VT capability. The kernel kept panicking just past the grub screen and good bye. After twice modifying my bios setting (which was correct) I tried flashing a new bios ROM which surprisingly helped. Would you share your pngs with us? cheers mar77i

Sure, glad to: http://phoenix.rlfpllc.com/dl/arch/bugs/vb/Logs/VBox.log.2 http://phoenix.rlfpllc.com/dl/arch/bugs/vb/Logs/VBox.log.1 http://phoenix.rlfpllc.com/dl/arch/bugs/vb/Logs/VBox.log http://phoenix.rlfpllc.com/dl/arch/bugs/vb/Logs/VBox.png.2 I never got it working with 3.2.13, so I dropped back to 3.2.11 and it worked fine again. I'll try looking at it again later this week. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

00:00:03.343 HWACCM: No VT-x or AMD-V CPU extension found. Reason VERR_VMX_NO_VMX Yes, nice to see they have cleaned up some checking code. Now it would be interesting to make the host system work again. . Does /proc/cpuinfo show svm{,_lock}/vmx flags? . Does your bios provide any virtualisation options, and if, are they activated? . And finally, because it - and I still wouldn't buy it ;D - helped here: how old is that bios rom and on what mainboard - and can you try updating it? cheers! mar77i
