I am having a similar problem on OS11exp but with Vista 64. Sometimes waiting for it to finish works this might be 30 minutes to hours. The other day I was installing updates and left for work came back and the system still was on the same progress bar. This is not even close to be workable so far just doing updates has taken me the better part of three days and I just passed service pack 2 and have probably 100 updates to do before I get it patched. But I really don't have much choice if I was on /gnu/linux I would probably use KVM, in fact I have been thinking about shelving vbox due to such issues. If you stop a guest while downloading you might get Window crc failures so when I have stopped it I have been sure to do it while not downloading for the most part. If you check the forums many people have similar problems I think that vbox in not stable and I think that another solution might be better. My suggestion is use KVM if on Fedora and don't look back to Vbox.
