Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

Hi.

I downloaded a boot floppy image from http://boot.kernel.org/gpxe_images/gpxe.dsk

After extending the image file size to 1.44MB, I created a VM to test that in. Booting over the internet worked and once the initial menu screen appeared I chose Live Images then DSL. Text on the screen is:

Loading live/dsl/linux24.................

Loading live/dsl/minirt24.gz...ready.

and then a Guru Meditation dialog box appears.

The full log is attached but the relevant part seems to be:

00:03:08.545 Changing the VM state from 'RUNNING' to 'GURU_MEDITATION'.

00:03:21.366 ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_INVALID_VM_STATE (0x80bb0002) aIID={0a51994b-cbc6-4686-94eb-d4e4023280e2} aComponent={Console} aText={Invalid machine state 6 when checking if the guest entered the ACPI mode)} aWarning=false, preserve=false

Some more information...

Host has Core 2 Duo T8100 CPU, 4GB RAM, running Ubuntu 9.10 with 32-bit PAE kernel. uname -a output:

Linux ubuntu 2.6.31-15-generic-pae #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 16:12:10 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

VirtualBox dumped an additional log file in my home directory, named e.g. 2009-11-25-09-59-59.033-VirtualBox-10665.log. It is only a few lines so I have pasted it here:
