Description
I tried to boot into my VM with Dr.Web Live cd from here: ftp://ftp.drweb.com/pub/drweb/livecd/minDrWebLiveCD-5.0.0.0902170.iso
Unfortunately the graphic interface of this CD doesn't load. Isn't it supported by your program ? Can you look into it?

The symptom is that after the green "spider" boot splash screen, the console goes black. Booting into text mode works flawlessly. The problem is DrWeb's logic to figure out a display driver to use in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. This file still contains a Section "Device" with a Driver "UNKNOWN" which in turn makes the X server unable to start (see /var/log/Xorg.0.log). So this is not a deficiency of VirtualBox, but of DrWeb.
