I've posted a similar query on the vbox lists, but not getting anything back yet... and really wanted to keep on working now that I'm getting into zpools and zfs.. after a few days configuring a new install.
Its a vm using vbox on win7 64 bit. I did something while scripting up some rsync and zfs snapshot scripts. Maybe a few too many clicks or something... I don't know but the mouse and keyboard froze up... I waited a good while but it didn't thaw. Ok since I'm in a vm, I hit right CTRL which frees the mouse back to the parent OS. And tried shutting down the stuck OS. Well it looked like it came down but now when I try to restart it, first off the button says "Aborted" rather than "Powered Down". And when I try ot start it, well, it comes a little ways but then I get message box that says 'starting OS' and a graph bar holding at 20%. It never goes any farther. I tried out waiting it but it is well and truly stuck. Oh, and forgot to mention that when it was apparently down I changed the CD so it pointed back at the OI live disc... but I don't think its getting far enough to see that. It just goes right into the graph bar that never grows. I'm hoping there may be a fellow vm user who may have seen something like this and know of some kind of tricky cure. _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
