Most common problem is that sometimes vbox tries to boot the .iso again, so try removing that and floppy from the boot options. Are you using vbox 6.04? A couple of us found minor issues with one of the recent minor updates which have now disappeared. I'm not very patient when trying to fix something as new as a fresh install. If it fails, I try again - watching everything I do and I end up happy. Keep trying Keith Bainbridge keithr...@gmail.com +61 (0)447 667 468

Problem loading Debian 9.8.0
Hi Suppot, I installed Debian 9.8.0 on my laptop using an iso DVD image and Virtualbox 6.0.4 https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-dvd/ I create a virtual drive of 50GB and loaded the ISO from a local folder on my Laptop. The installation went fine but when it went to boot the Virtual box software but the Debian OS didn't load. A black box opened up with a flashing cursor in the Top LHS. It looks as if its waiting for more files to be loaded before but it just sits there doing nothing. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it again with no success. I also have tried installing an earlier version of debian but get the same result. I have checked every thing and it seems to be okay. Virtual box seems to be working okay and the top tab says Debian [Running] Is it my laptop. I am using a Panasonic Toughbook with windows 10 build 1803. . it has a standard hard drive with 1TB space. 16GB RAM. I already made one change to the bios enabling AMD-V. Do I need to make any more. I can send more info on the laptop if required. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks, Patrick
