Dear Mike,

Yeah you are right, that was the problem, the IDE and SATA thing...... now 
changing to IDE works fine....

Thanks a lot.

Sincerely,

Irfan

Subject: Re: [openflow-discuss] Floodlight Virtual Machine Image not booting
 

Can you check that the disk in the VM is set up as IDE (not SATA).  

We haven't used VirtualBox much internally and when I set it up just now, it 
defaulted the disk to SATA, which won't work.  

VirtualBox works fine for me now with the latest vm.
