win xp vm on sidux host won`t resume

[alexv]

Hi . I was running win xp sp2 as a guest OS on a sidux 2007.4.5 notebook . VirtualBox version is 1.5.4 OSE , i installed it via precompiled deb packages and everything went smooth on day one , which was yesterday . This morning though upon powering back up from suspend-to-disk , the vm failed to resume and i got the following output :

Failed to restore VM state from '/home/razvan/.VirtualBox/Machines/win/Snapshots/{a7fca7ba-2cff-4dfa-3c88-ce295b6ba30f}.sav' (VERR_SSM_UNEXPECTED_DATA). VBox status code: -1829 (VERR_SSM_UNEXPECTED_DATA).

Result Code: 0x80004005 Component: Console Interface: IConsole {1dea5c4b-0753-4193-b909-22330f64ec45} In complete contrast to my first impressions, this proved to be quite a showstopper even more so considering i needed windows for work-related tasks. If theres any additional info i might supply to help fix the issue ,youre welcome to email me . Thank you

Your version of VirtualBox was probably upgraded to 1.5.6. Either discard the saved stated from the main GUI, or revert to 1.5.4 temporarily.

Please could you have a look at ​http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1595, sounds like this one refers to the same problem. Can you attach a VBox.log file?
