I'm trying to install Debian sarge (3.1) on a virtualbox VM. I have had the same problem. The problem arises when I get to the "write changes to partition" stage; I get the message:
"Input/Output error during read on /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc" Tthen I resolve using IDE controller. I select "Settings" menu option and "Storage" item. Select SATA Controller and remove it. Next i select IDE Controller and add disk my debian ".dvi" created previously. And next all work good. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655701 Title: "Input/Output error during read" during old ubuntu releases installation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox-ose/+bug/655701/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
