Description
Fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit, running VirtualBox 3.1.0 r55467.
I run the Ubuntu 9.10 x86 install, everything is OK until restart, I get GRUB loading, then a long wait, then a VirtualBox message saying there was a crash.
This is a Gateway LX6810, I have an Intel Quad-core CPU, Q8200 with no VT, NVIDIA chipset.

I have dual-boot on this PC (Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit) , I tried the exact same VirtualBox setup and install of Ubuntu Server 9.10 x86, and I get a crash at the exact same point... is this a hardware issue?

This problem will be fixed in the final 3.2.6 release. The problem is triggered by the fact that your VM runs without VT-x (your CPU does not support this extension) and has more than 2GB assigned.
