It's not exactly a "bad ISO" if it boots on real hardware... so it may be a bug in virtualbox that is triggered by something unusual in the ISO. Since I would really like to be able to use Lubuntu ISOs in virtualbox, I am in the process of learning how to create them in a Ubuntu-like way. When (if?) I succeed, I will hopefully be able to track down this issue further. When I built a "sort-of-but-not-really" Lubuntu ISO using live-helper, that ISO *did* boot just fine in virtualbox for me. But that's not how Ubuntu does its livecd ISO creation. So, now I should learn about and play with germinate, and livecd-rootfs, and debian-cd, and ubuntu-cdimage :) Is there already a LaunchPad bug for this issue? If not, please do create one!
