Solaris 8 guest crashes in VirtualBox 4.0.2 — at Version 3

Reported by: Rainer Orth Owned by:

Guest type: Solaris Host type: Solaris

Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

While I've successfully run a Solaris 8 guest in VirtualBox 3.1.8 up to Solaris 11 Express, it causes memory exhaustion on snv_155.

I now tried to run the same guest in VirtualBox 4.0.2 on snv_157. Unfortunately, the guest crashes now, while a Solaris 9 guest at least boots.

This could be the same problem as in ticket #7966.

Try to disable the preview window in the VirtualBox Console.

Replying to sunlover:

No, this is unrelated: the leak only happens with VirtualBox 3.1.8 on Solaris 11 builds after snv_151a (Solaris 11 Express). The S8 VM crashes just the same without the preview window.

Duplicate of #7589. It would work also work if you would enable VT-x and nested paging. But we want to fix this bug for non-VT-x CPUs as well.
