@Kevin you need to remove (uninstall) the guest additions from the VM before upgrading to virtualbox 7. (This is true when migrating any VM between major virtualbox versions - even if both work correctly with the same kernel version on the Host).
Shortly: 1. Boot Windows Guest VM with Virtualbox 6.1 (and an older Linux kernel to get around the original issue). 2. Remove (uninstall) the Guest additions. (As a sanity check, it may be worth ensuring that your guest VM can boot without the Guest additions installed; if not, adjust the client VM config as required). 3. Uninstall virtualbox 6.1 and the virtualbox 6.1 extension pack 4. Install virtualbox 7 (and the virutalbox 7 extension pack if required) 5. Boot the Windows Guest VM in virtualbox 7 Note: Setting the paravirtualization interface to the "default" option in virtualbox 7 may result in the guest VM perpetually booting into repair mode. Set the paravirtualization explicitely to "Hyper-V" (what Windows actually requires) or "KVM" (this option worked in my case - haven't explicitely tested Hyper-V yet) 6. Install the virtualbox 7 guest additions in your guest VM again. Hope this helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2073267 Title: Guru meditation on VM start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-signed-hwe-5.15/+bug/2073267/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
