Description
(I would believe this bug is around also now.)
Here's how it works:
- Open and run a VirtualBox machine
- Fill up your harddrive so there's only 100MB or so left on it. This should be enough to produce an out of memory error on hibernate, if the VM's RAM is at least 600MB or so.
- Click Shutdown, Hibernate.
- An error box comes up saying VirtualBox had an error because the harddrive is full.
From here, you *cannot* resume the hibernation process, nor take any action with the VirtualBox window!
All that is to be done is to kill it using the task manager from ctrl+alt+delete . All info in that Virtualbox session has been lost.
Lots of people must have this error.
