Re: VirtualBox installation question.

    Michael Cronenworth,

    
    Sorry it should be the way you said but, I had a very bad experience
    doing this.

    
    Fact:

    
    I updated from Fedora14-x86_64 to Fedora16-x86_64 host, and I
    thought VirtualBox-4.0 was ok. When I started Winvista64 Guest I got
    the message:

    
    BOOTMGR is compressed Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart

    
    I did it, and the Winvista64 boot started again and stoped at the
    same point. In a loop. I thought that the problem was VirtualBox for
    Fedora14. I removed it. So I installed Virtualbox-4.1-4.1.6 for
    Fedora16-x86_64. The same thing is happening. Why bootmgr has
    changed? The guest machine was working UNTOUCHED in a
    "Production" more than a year. I only updated from Fedora14 to
    Fedora16.

    
    My feeling says that the problem is Windows, but the fact is that I
    have to find a solution for it.

    
    Any help would be appreciated.

    
    Thanks.

        my virtual machines be automatically picked up by the
        installation process?
        

      Yes, it is safe. Your virtual machines are not tied to the
      package. They are XML files stored in your user's /home directory.
