This PR is quite old by now.  Is it still relevant?

Interesting...

I spoke too soon about 5.2.8 solving the problem.  The latest round of CentOS
Yum updates triggered it again.

I restored the .vdi file using an OVA snapshot and reran updates + zeroing free
blocks (in prep for compressing the disk image).

Did this procedure twice, once with IDE and no host cache, and again with SATA
and host cache.

No problems in either case.

So it looks like we may have a workaround.

It's still a mystery why this problem popped up in 5.2.6, though.  I've been
running CentOS VMs for years and never had to care about controller settings.

bug #215526 seems a similar problem.

I'm not seeing this issue with CentOS in 5.2.8.  A Debian install that failed
under 5.2.6 also worked under 5.2.8.

My Windows 10 guest still doesn't work, but that may be due to permanent damage
caused by the previous failures, which happened during Windows Update.

I plan to try a fresh install when I get a chance, but that may be a while...
