Problems with 32bit ubuntu host and 64bit RH5.3 guest

[vermest]

I`m trying to install a 64bit RH guest on top of a 32bit ubuntu intrepid (8.10). The HW is a thinkpad 61P Vbox version is 2.1.4

I created the image (Normal 8G), and have the following settings: OS Type:Red Hat (64 bit) Base Memory:1024 MB Video Memory:12 MB Boot Order:CD/DVD-ROM, Hard Disk ACPI:Enabled IO APIC:Enabled VT-x/AMD-V:Enabled Nested Paging:Enabled PAE/NX:Disabled 3D Acceleration:Disabled

I copied the DVD image to a file (make it sure, there are no issues with the cdrom), and configured it as cdrom.

All the time when I start the virtualbox the operating system starts from the image, boot menu comes nicely. Then I try to continue, kernel and inintramfs is getting loaded on the guest, then the whole system is getting frozen (the host!). Or it reboots. This is the case all the time, so this is not just a random problem. Has anyone had the same problem?

I downloaded the latest version of VirtualBox for ubuntu intrepid, so this is th package I have: ii virtualbox-2.1 2.1.4-42893_Ubuntu_intrepid Sun xVM VirtualBox

I`m attaching the Vbox.log to the report.

Retested with the OSE edition, compiled from sources. Exactly the same result.

No, on OSE it seems to be a different issue, I got his kind of errors in the VBox.log: 00:01:16.662 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:01:16.670 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:01:16.678 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:01:16.690 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:01:16.706 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:01:16.714 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:01:16.978 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:01:16.986 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:11:24.816 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005) aIID={fd443ec1-0006-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} aComponent={Mouse} aText={Could not send the mouse event to the virtual mouse (VERR_PDM_NO_QUEUE_ITEMS)} aWarning=false, preserve=false

But the symptom is the same, host got frozen. Quite interesting, since I also tried the same setup on a desktop, and worked nicely there. Maybe this is some issue with my thinkpad kernel modules...
