On Virtualbox 5.2.12 with 3 gigs ram and 30 gigs virtual disk, FAT file system, the installer boots up ReactOS, but then on the reboot, it hangs on the ReactOS logo. :-/
Update: rebooted, pressed F12 and selected Debug.
Now it works...
rebooted in normal (default) boot, works now too. Except that the new hardware wizard fails installing any drivers for audio and ethernet.
Could install Virtualbox additions. Though weirdly, the mouse stopped working, so I had to use the keyboard for that.
After that, the mouse worked again.
- jeditobe 8y agoVirtualbox 5.2.12 is quite old and really buggy version Use VirtualBox 5.2.26 instead https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog-5.2#v26 https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog-5.2#v26 Disable USB in VM settings, use PS/2 mode
- jacobush 8y agoI would if I could. :)
- jimmy1 8y agoIf you can't update your virtualization software at work, you are probably running a huge security risk. Do you not have a patching process? If this isn't about work, then curious as to why you can't upgrade?
- richardwhiuk 8y ago5.2.12 was released in May 2018. That's hardly that old. None of the fixes since then sound like security fixes (all of the releases say 'maintenance release').
