--- Description --- Created attachment 185107 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=185107&action=edit TAR of screenshots Summary: cannot create a Windows 7 VM with Virtualbox 5.1.26 (FreeBSD 11.[01]) A VM can be created with VirtualBox 4.3.38 (FreeBSD 10.3) I upgraded to FreeBSD 11.1 and installed VirtualBox 5.1.26 using PKG on 2 Aug 2017. The Windows 7 VMs I had created under FreeBSD 10.3, Virtualbox 4.3.38 OSE r106717 were imported and ran without problems. However, when I tried to create a new VM on FreeBSD 11.1/11.0 using VirtualBox 5.1.26, both from the PORTs repository AND when compiled from source, I got the same set of problems. When installing Windows 7 you start by creating a virtual machine flagged as Win 7 64amd. You boot the virtual machine and provide it an ISO image of the Win 7 64 bit Install CD. The VM then boots from the CD, goes through a prelimiary setup phase, and then starts to copy and unpack files from the ISO image. During this process it displays a progress bar showing the amount of work done. The unpacking operation appears to fail randomly - 10%, 12%, 20%, 26%, 54%. If you google the failure message, then problem (according to MS) is that you have either a bad DVD, or memory and to take corrective actions. The ISO image checksum matches the published MD5 checksum. I have tried this on two different systems with the same result. I am attaching screenshots showing the output of the install and the Vbox.log file. In the Vbox.log file there appears to be a hint of the cause of the failure: 00:12:32.856035 AioMgr0-N: Request 0x000000a537bd00 failed with rc=VERR_TRY_AGAIN, migrating endpoint /root/VirtualBox VMs/Win7_2017-08-06/Win7_2017-08-06.vdi to failsafe manager. 00:12:34.601955 AIOMgr: I/O manager 0x000000993963a0 encountered a critical error (rc=VERR_FILE_AIO_NO_REQUEST) during operation.
