the trim feature does not depend on the SSD flag but is a separate
feature which needs to be enabled manually, the default is to
disable trim ( everything else is a bug ;) )

Did you enable the SSD-Flag for the drive associated with the

trying to install Windows 8 to vdi image, and it fails
randomly. Seems
<br>
recent code changes have introduced a bug to vdi.
<br>
It stops at some random percentage of Windows expanding
phase,25%, 96%,
<br>
etc. It never succeeded, tried 5 times with today's SVN
code.
<br>
vmdk/vhd works fine.
