Re: [vbox-users] VirtualBox on Squeeze

Hi Frank,
Hi, Maciek,


What is the output of
  dpkg --print-architecture
?


Oh... it says i386.


You probably have mixed installation (i386 userland and amd64 kernel).
I had once that. (First installed i386 debian and next upgraded kernel
to amd64)


Yes, this might have been the case. I remember that I once had troubles 
with the amd64-iso-images... so I installed i386 and made an update to 
amd64 using apt. Might be that this was on that machine.



So you should install amd64 debian (entire system not only kernel),


This might be a little problem, because the machine I'm talking about is 
already located at my ISPs computing center... so that I've no physical 
access to it. :-( Is there no other way for a clean switch to amd64?



or make small amd64 chrooted  environment (in order to install VBox)
(Once I did so . Now I come back to pure i386 :-)


Hmm... never did this. Do you have a link for a good Howto?

TIA  cheers,
Andy

Ticket is 4064.

I couldn't upload the pcap because its too big, but I've put it on a 
server you can get to (I hope).



BTW this isn't improved in 2.2.4.

I've not heard whether anyone has attempted to pull the (very large) 
pcap file.

 Could V'box - in such interface-less situations - just ask if the user wishes

 proceed without a network connection, rather than fail to start at all?

  Have now installed 2.2.4, to see if problem persists.

  It does. It's a damned nuisance...

  This was the amd_64 '.run' file - a very smooth install mechanism.
  Well done whoever put that together!
