Ubuntu Virtual Guest does not work any more -> fixed in SVN/1.4.2

[pbrient]

I cannot bootan Ubuntu (7.04) virtual guest anymore, whether to use an existing install, or create a new guest.

It worked fine with VirtualBox 1.3.8, with the same Ubuntu DVD.

Could you provide us with information about your host system?

OOps that's important stuff, indeed !

OS information : Windows XP SP2 Family Edition

Hardware :

CPU : AMD Athlon 64 3000+ , 2 GHz RAM : 1.5 GB

By the way, I have another Ubuntu VM that works fine fine in 1.4.0, on a Dell Latitude D610 laptop : Hardware :

CPU : Intel Pentium M , 1.86 GHz RAM : 2 GB

And congratulations for this great tool anyway !

And the symptoms? Hanging with a flashing cursor in the top left-hand corner?

Please include the log file of your failing VM (.VirtualBox\Machines\vm_name\Log\VBox.log in Documents and Settings/user_name).
