The host os: 8-CURRENT AMD64, Xeon 5405, updated from sources from half an hour ago. No debugging in kernel. What works: * Booted 6.2-RELEASE i386 guest * ACPI, IOAPIC enabled for guest emulation * Performance seems ok (subjectively). Disk IO seems a bit slow * Networking, NAT emulation, all emulated NIC hardware What doesn't work: * Hardware VT support - "A critical error has occurred..." * CPU count detection - if I select 2 CPUs for the guest, VirtualBox complains the number of physical CPUs is 1 (hardware is quad core) * Selecting > 1 CPU automatically selects Hardware VT support, so guests with multiple virtual CPUs cannot be booted. * 64-bit guest support (same as above) * Enabling virtual SATA controller - no error messages, the guest simply changes state to "aborted" * Enabling COM ports - same as above * Enabling audio - "Some audio devices could not be opened, HostAudioNotResponding" * Rebooting the VM guest "from inside" from the boot loader But so far it's an excellent start :) Thanks!Received on Sat May 23 2009 - 22:21:16 UTC
