Description (last modified by )
- host ubuntu 6.10 with www.2.6.17-11-generic kernel
- host network tap1
- booted vbox from a PC-DOS floopy image from www.netbootdisk.com
- mapped a Windows server share to drive I: - OK
- run Symantec Ghost 8.2 from the drive I: - OK
- started restore a Windows XP image to virtual machine - OK
- transfered 100MB out of 4.5GB data in 1:18 minute, then vbox froze
- when vbox freeze, it does not use any CPU as shown in "top"
This is a show-stopper as Ghost is the only ways to setup company-standard Windows images where I work.

Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.

With virtualbox 1.4.1beta on OS X I tried to boot a Linux liveCD with Ghost running in doesemu.
The restore went fine but windows failed to boot saying "error reading disk".
A floppy image designed to support multiple network cards with Ghost fails to boot.
Looks like there is no ghost for us yet.
