Description
VirtualBox-osx-1.5.51-r27946-beta3 on Mac OS X 10.4.11 fails to install FreeBSD 7.0RC2 while copying files from CD to the virtual Harddrive (no matter if the virtual HD is of growing or fixed size type).
I used ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/7.0/7.0-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso, checked the MD5 sums (correct) and configured VirtualBox to use that ISO image as CD-Rom for a OS type FreeBSD VM
After booting the VM I choose the following options:
Screen: Option choosen: ======================================================================
Welcome to FreeBSD: Boot FreeBSD [default]
Country Selection: Germany System Console Keymap: German ISO FreeBSD/i386 7.0 RC2 sysinstall Main menu: Standart partitioning scheme: All Install Boot Manager: Standart (no boot manager) create BSD partitions: Auto Defaults Choose Distribution: X-Developer Ports Collection: yes Choose installation Media: CD/DVD
However, the install always crashes after a while, mostly when the virtual HD LED has been red for quite a long time. See attached screenshots
