Having issues with Debian when AMD-V is turned on (erratum 170 CPU)

Description

After Installing Debian 4.0 r5 on my Windows XP 32bit PC, using VBOX 2.1 When I try and do the initial reboot after the install it crashes with lots of Swap File errors as follows:

swap free: Bad Swap file entry 00c00000

it will then either come up with a Segmentation error or if I'm lucky drop me to a busybox shell.

When I turned off AMD-V (hardware Virtualisation) and it worked fine, I posted this in the forum and according to sandervl, it's an issue with VirtualBox

Using VirtualBox 2.1.2 this issue no longer occurs, so I guess either intentionally or unintentionally, it is fixed!
