SATA DVD drive produces corruptions and crashes => fixed in svn

Description

If I try to install openSUSE with the virtual SATA dvd drive the installation hangs after a short time. When I install the system with rpm packages instead of a direct copy I directly get md5 checksum errors.

This problem doesn't appear if I use the virtual IDE drive so it looks like the DVD Sata implementation is broken.

I am using Virtualbox 4.0.4 on openSUSE 11.4 64 Bit.

Could you attach a VBox.log file for both VM sessions?

It should be easily reproducible with the openSUSE 11.4 DVD.

Could you apply r36972 and check if this fixes your problem?

Please reopen if still relevant with VBox 4.0.8.

I've hit this bug myself installing Debian onto a VM using the following images with SATA and IntelAhci controller:

6.0.1a fails installing eject-udeb 2.1 with a "bad md5sum" error (hit alt-f2 and check /var/log/syslog in the non-gui installer.)

If I switch to IDE+ICH6 it installs fine, also switching back to SATA+IntelAhci after install appears to work just fine

6.0.1a, 6.0.1.2 fail in the same spot for i386+amd64.. 5.0.8 fails in a different spot for both i386/amd64.

Thanks for the report, I was able to reproduce the issue and will investigate it.

Summary:	SATA DVD drive produces corruptions and crashes → SATA DVD drive produces corruptions and crashes => fixed in svn

Fixed the bug in svn. Only reading from DVD images bigger than 4GB was affected.

Thanks, I can confirm the bug has been fixed.

I should have mentioned in my original post, the netinst CD fails as well which is only 400MB so there may be an entirely separate bug that caused it to trigger this bug.

With this patch it installs correctly.

I'm not able to reproduce the problem with netinstall iso even without the patch.

comment:11 by Frank Mehnert, 14 years ago

verm, which VBox version did you use when you observed the bug?

comment:12 by Amar Takhar, 14 years ago

4.1.0 r37847 (beta 2) on FreeBSD 9-C last updated 2011-07-11.
