I've been running 6.4 with no issues on VirtualBox 5.0.x (initially) and now 5.2.x. But it's a VM installed with OpenBSD 5.6 and upgraded over the years, not installed from latest stable media. Judging by the latest releases, the 5.1.x VirtualBox series is out of maintenance, and the last 5.1.x version is dated before OpenBSD's 6.4 release (the same is true for 5.0.x). Maybe try latest stable release, 5.2.22 at the moment? And make sure you choose the right OS template when creating the VM? > The boot sequence starts, and restarts forever. > > I recorded the console of the VM, the last message displayed before reboot > is : > > isa0 at mainbus0 > pckbc0 at isa0 port 0x60/5 irq 1 irq 12 These two lines are common on both my VM and my desktop. The next two lines are: pckbd0 at pckbc0 (kbd slot) wskbd0 at pckbd0: console keyboard Uneducated guess here, but is there anything out of normal with your keyboard setup in the VM or with the keyboard options chosen during install? Can you try the defaults?
Problem with installing OpenBSD 6.4 on VirtualBox
hello, I 'm trying to install OpenBSD 6.4 on VirtualBox 5.1.38 on a LinuxMint host. Please note that 6.0, ... 6.3 worked fine, only 6.4 failed. The boot sequence starts, and restarts forever. I recorded the console of the VM, the last message displayed before reboot is : isa0 at mainbus0 pckbc0 at isa0 port 0x60/5 irq 1 irq 12 I used the last install64.iso file. I also tried with install64.fs, same problem. How could I install obsd 6.4 ?
