My Ibex is virtually panicking!
* * * * I want to check
out Intrepid but I do not want to install it on my only machine since I
go to
college online. *I do not have enough hard drive space to make another
partition to install it on
so I decided that I would make a virtual machine. *I use the latest
version of VirtualBox on
Kubuntu 8.04. *My problem is that every time I try to install 8.10
I get a kernel panic. *Here is
what I did and got the same problem with each using Kubuntu, Ubuntu, and
the alternate CD's. *
* * * *Downloaded the iso file. *MD5
sum is correct. *Made a new virtual machine. *Panic from iso
as boot disk after I try to install. *Burn disk at 4X to use as a
boot disk and yes I did that
correctly. *Make a new virtual machine. *Panic from CD as boot
disk after I try to install. *I also
get a kernel panic when I try to check the CD's or iso's for defects. *Memtest
works fine but that
doesn't use the kernel, I think. *
* * * *I have a couple of virtual machines
from DOS 6.2 to XP, Kubuntu 8.04 with KDE 4, and a few
other linux distros so I know how to work with Vbox. *I know how to
edit files inside an iso, if
that would fix this. *I've been on *buntu for almost a year, use AIX
at work and overcame heinous
upgrade and nvidia problems (envy is a godsend, thank you Alberto!) so
I guess I've graduated from
noob. *I can't find anything useful about this on the internets and
I have no chickens for
voodoo. *If anyone has some ideas I would love to try them out. *I
can't wait until October :-(
