Hello the community, Sorry if my question has already been treated, but I can't find a solution to my problem. My computer is running Vista, and I want to run crux on the virtual machine VirtualBox. There is a driver problem with the cdrom image. I am able to run the image, then to log as root, partition and format (virtual) hard drive. But during boot stage there is a lot of message : hdc: cdrom_read_intr: Bad transfer size 65534 This drive is not supported by this version of the driver hdc: drive not ready for command. And the setup programm failed with a lot of this message. At boot time, hdc (the virtual drive which mount the crux iso file) is recognized as : hdc: VBOX CD-ROM, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive How can I use crux on VirtualBox ? Thank you in advance for your help. Cordialy, Grégoire AVOT.

How can I use crux on VirtualBox ?
This is a linux kernel / VirtualBox compatibility issue. I suggest you to try a recent linux kernel (2.6.23.1 or the latest -git tree) to check if this problem still persists. If you still run into this bug, please ask in the VirtualBox community and then the Linux Kernel Mailing List providing more details as your .config file and (if possible) the output of hdparm -I /dev/hdc to help debugging.

Thank you for your (fast) response. I found an alternative solution : I use the VmWare virtual machine. Now crux seems to work correctly. Clemens Koller a écrit :

Very good! Please also give the VirtualBox project some feedback and report the the problem. So they can propably fix it for their next release.
