EFFECTS: - Cause VirtualBox FATAL-ERROR on start, if WLAN enabled during Settings, but later disabled when Appliance is started. - Prevents me from using vmnet1, vmnet8 (while WLAN is disabled at configuration time) DETAILLED DESCRIPTION: I normally disable the WLAN network interface on my MacBook (or have a network configuration profile without it). When I try to configure the Network Setting of an Virtual-Appliance in this state by selecting a Bridged Adapter, an error appears in the the status line ""invalid configuration detected"". Therefore, the OK button is disabled. When I enable my WLAN network interface and open the Setting again, I can select the Name with ""en1: AirPort"" and leave the dialog with OK. In addition, I can now also select vmnet1, vmnet8 for other network interfaces. NEXT STEP: I disabled the WLAN interface again. And start the Virtual-Appliance. OOPS, it fails with an VirtualBox error (just after the start). ADDITIONAL NOTES: A disabled WLAN interface prevents me from using vmnet1 and vmnet8 in Settings. They are never shown. When I enable the WLAN interface, I can easily assign them to other Network Adapters (in Brdiged Adpater mode). When the WLAN interface is disabled, this configuration seems to be lost.
