Description
Software: Windows XP Pro SP2 Eng, no extra patches, VirtualBox 1.3.2 Full.
VirtualBox crashes when the hard disk on the real PC (host) gets full.
recommended behavior:
MS Virtual PC 2004 simply pauses the VM and informs the user of such a problem.
The VM can be shut-down or unpaused. If there is still no enough space, it gives this warning again, and pauses again.

See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
ohhh... one more thing: paused VM can also be hibernated in VPC 2004.
steps to reproduce:
fill also all your hark disk partition on host PC (leave little space, say 1 GB or half GB), and start installing some heavy guest OS such as Windows XP or SUSE Linux 10.x.
I promise: a crash.
