The error message below comes up when I try to open an XP Pro virtual
machine. The host is Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit.
The VM has been in use for some time now. It was originally
created under VBox 1.6 and has been running under 3.0.2. I haven't
upgraded to 3.0.4 yet.
I discarded the saved state, but get the same error message.
The only change that's been done since it was last used successfully was
to move the home directory to its own partition.
The other VMs (not windows OS) still work.
Any help is appreciated.
TIA
Mark
The following suggestions have been offered, but do not change the error.
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
&
Edit the file /home/mtyoung/.VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml and remove the
line with the mentioned file. (I deleted the only line containing the
UUID 12646e2e-34f2-4745-afa9-cd42fb5b049b. As I suspected this only
deleted the VM.)
