SUSE Linux 9.1 guest refuses to load with VT-x enabled

Reported by: Technologov Owned by:
Component: VMM/HWACCM Version: VirtualBox 3.0.10
Keywords: Cc:
Guest type: Linux Host type: Windows

Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

Host: Windows 7, 64-bit, VBox 3.0.10, Core 2 Q6600.

Guest: SUSE Linux 9.1, 32-bit guest fails to load from CD, when VT-x enabled; works fine when I disable VT-x.

NOTE: I think it may be bootloader related, rather than kernel related, because I *can* load the system with VT-x when booting with "shift" key pressed, bypassing graphical bootloader.

SUSE Linux 9.1 Personal Edition is freeware, so I can send you the ISO for testing.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. insert CD
  1. choose "install" option

Do you have Intel VT-x/AMD-v turned off?

comment:5 by Technologov, 14 years ago

Host: Windows 7, 64-bit, VBox 3.0.10, Core 2 Q6600.

Again:

SUSE Linux 9.1 works with VT-x = off (software virtualization)

SUSE Linux 9.1 doesn't works with VT-x = on (hardware virtualization)

Same problem with SUSE Linux 10.0 (aka openSUSE 10.0)

Bug still exists in VBox 4.0.4.

Happens only with basic VMX, Unrestricted VMX works fine. (on Intel Core i7 2600K CPU)
