Ubuntu Hardy: VirtualBox resume causes system reboot (host) — at Version 2

Reported by: Clayton Dukes Owned by:
Component: host support Version: VirtualBox 1.6.0
Keywords: reboot Cc:
Guest type: other Host type: other

Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

On 4 separate occasions now, VirtualBox crashed after doing a resume of a saved session and it causes my host (Ubuntu Hardy) to reboot without warning. I'm not sure what's causing it, but in each case, after the host reloads and I try to start the VirtualBox guest (Windows XP), I get an error stating that the host is inaccessible with a message of:

Could not load the settings file '/home/cdukes/.VirtualBox/Machines/XPSP3/XPSP3.xml'.
Premature end of data in tag VirtualBox line 3.
Location: '/home/cdukes/.VirtualBox/Machines/XPSP3/XPSP3.xml', line 65 (3), column 49.

Result Code: 
0x80004005
Component: 
VirtualBox
Interface: 
IVirtualBox {2d3b9ea7-25f5-4f07-a8e1-7dd7e0dcf667}

When I look at that file, it looks like the file is truncated. The only option I have is to delete the host and recreate it using the the same virtual disk.

VirtualBox seemed so much more stable in v1.5x, what happened?

VirtualBox Log file (note the odd binary data at the end)

I attached the log file, but it cuts off the binary data at the end of the log file from where it crashed. So the last line of text is: 00:00:06.892 Changing the VM state from 'CREATED' to 'LOADING'. Followed by several lines of unreadable binary data.

Here's a tar of the whole directory in case you need it.
