Ticket #13585 (closed defect: fixed)

Any Virtual Machine which has a x64 bit architecture gets a Guru Meditation Error(Triple Fault) on boot.

Description

Whenever I attempt to run a x64 bit Linux (Ubuntu Server 14.04) VM on a Ubuntu 14.10 host, I recieve a Guru Meditation. When digging into the logs, I see the V.M has a Triple Fault error as the cause of the Guru Mediation. I have enabled PAE on the VM to test it and it had no effect. I have also made sure my BIOS has VT-x enabled. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is the config file of the Virtual Machine. One difference was that PAE was enabled after this information was gathered.

We are able to reproduce the problem. Happens only with older Xeons and Pentium D (VMX_VMCS_CTRL_PROC_EXEC_USE_MSR_BITMAPS (must be cleared)). We are working on a fix.
