Description
I have a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.12.6 running VB 5.1.26 r117224
The following steps will produce a hard crash/black screen reboot of OSX.
Download Kubuntu 17.04
Install with two gig, two cores, bump graphics memory to 64 meg, otherwise graphical installer won't work
Inside Kubuntu, apt update, then apt upgrade
I've watched it a couple times, seems to be during the *unpacking* of the new kernel, which strikes me as odd. Every time it just completely black screen reboots OSX, which is unusual - the OS normally stops in a graceful fashion with a notification screen.
I also use Lubuntu, which is very similar - no complaints here, just ran an apt upgrade on a fresh install, no problems.
I'm going to see if this also fails on Win8.1, will post a separate ticket if it does.
