Hi,there,

I can create and configure a guest os, but I can not make it run,
VirtualBox showd 'Aborted'.
The dmesg reported 'VirtualBox[6299]: segfault at 00300030 rip
2b9c3b1bd856 rsp 41122620 error 4'
Could you give me some idea about the problem?
BTW,I found the VirtualBox had released 1.5.0OSE,will openSuse10.3
contain that?
Thank you very much.


I'm not familiar with Intel CPU's, but if Beta3 x86_64 is installed, it 
must be ia64. The kernel is 64-bit and VirtualBox needs to build and 
install a 32-bit module (vboxdrv) and that's not compatible. The 
VirtualBox site says that they don't expect to do 64-bit anytime soon, 
so we are out of luck there. I also looked at VMware, same problem.
So KVM is the only option that supports both 32-bit and 64-bit VM's. Not 
sure about Xen.

Sid.


I must have been looking at old documentation, Virtualbox runs on 64-bit 
AMD64 is mentioned but not IA64.

Regards
Sid.

I don't know how to solve your problem, but a clarification for you:

AMD64, x86-64, and IA-32e are the same architecture. They are not the same as 
IA-64 -- This is the 64-bit Itanium architecture. You want the x86-64 or 
AMD64 version to run on your processor.

This cpu, is really 64 bits?

I mean that the P4 HT is only 32 bits.
It must be P4 EMT64 (or core duo), or Athlon64, or Opteron to run x86-64.
