May 6, 2011I want to install a Centos 5.0 Virtualbox for Windows 7 x64. Can someone please let me know where I can go to get that, because I would like to have the virtualbox to further understand how LINUX works. I have taken a course in Redhat Enterprise Linux Computing Essentials, and I enjoyed using LINUX. So that is why I am searching for a 5.0 free download of Virtualbox.

CentOS 5 Server :: CentOS 5.5 Guest In VirtualBox / Less Memory Available Than Configured
Aug 27, 2010I just ran into a weird problem with a CentOS 5.5 64-bit server running VirtualBox 3.2.8 (I would run Vmware Server 2.0.2 if not for the well known fact that Vmware doesn't care about its Server line anymore and it doesn't run on CentOS > 5.3 without major splits). I currently have two guests in that VirtualBox setup, a CentOS 5.5 64-bit and a Fedora 13 64-bit. The CentOS 5.5 guest shows less memory available than configured. If, for example, I give the virtual machine 512MB of memory the guest OS only recognizes 380MB. If I give it 768MB it only recognizes 637MB, and so on. I don't have that problem on the Fedora guest - 1024MB configured, 1024MB available.

Jul 5, 2010I decided to take centos 5.5 for a testdrive. I download the live cd iso and attempted to boot the system via virtualbox on my mac os 10 system. I get the blue boot screen and choosing either the graphical boot or text boot gets me no where, the blue screen remains and nothing happens). Virtualbox is able to boot other linux systems fine so I am not sure if this is a centos issue or centos/virtualbox issue.

CentOS 5 :: VirtualBox VM On Win2008 Server Pegs CPU?
Aug 31, 2009I have installed a recent version of CentOS 5 (kernel is 2.6.18-128.el5) as VM in VirtualBox on a Windows 2008 server. When CentOS is totally idle, the CPU on the host (windows) machine is totally pegged from the VirtualBox process. I have read on some other forums that this is a problem with the clock running at 1000Hz and that recompiling the kernel configured with the clock at 100Hz will fix, or at least minimize the problem.
Has anyone else seen this problem? Can someone point me to a good set of instructions on rebuilding the kernel? I followed one set of instructions, but it wasn't for CentOS. After I building everything I was supposed to and copying files over the System.map* and vmlinuz* in the /boot directory (I think I screwed up that one), I went to modify the lilo.conf per the instructions, but I couldn't find it.
CentOS 5 :: Unix Timer Fast In Virtualbox 3.06
Oct 12, 2009I installed centos 5.3 with last update in Virtualbox 3.06. Everything looks quite good except the unix time. It's very fast than normal. I even couldn't make ntpd work.
[Code]...
I also modified the menu.lst files as following: kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-164.el5 ro root=/dev/vg00/lv00 rhgb quiet divider=10 But it still dosen't work. how to sync the local time in the virtualbox? It looks like a bug in current kernel as other linux with newer kernel don't have such problem.

CentOS 5 :: Updating Kernel And Installing VirtualBox
Oct 28, 2010I updated my system to the latest version - 5.5. After that I could not install VirtualBox. I was thinking, trying to fix, googling... it over for hours... Finally I found the reason. VirtualBox installer searches for the source kernel at /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.17.4.el5/build, and it can not. Look into /lib/modules, I have some kernels such as:
- 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5
- 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5debug
- 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5xen
... and more old ones.
At that time, I booted on 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5 kernel. But inside that directory, there is no build or source (directory/ file). Then I looked into 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5debug, and it had. So I typed: ln -s /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.17.4.el5debug/build /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.17.4.el5/build

CentOS 5 :: Starting VirtualBox Causes User Session To Logout?
Feb 17, 2011I have installed VirtualBox as per the instructions on this site, and the kernel module compiled without problem, however when I start it, it causes the user to logout!
I am using the nvidia module from the ATrpms repo if that has any bearing on the problem.
Has anyone else seen this issue?

VirtualBox 4.0.2 from virtualbox repo.

Fedora :: Installed CentOS 5 In Virtualbox But Can't Ping The Virtual Machine?
Mar 10, 2009Running Fedora 10, I installed CentOS 5 in Virtualbox, but I can't ping the Virtual Machine...
From within CentOS, I can ping my laptop [known as the host?] but from the laptop I can't ping the CentOS Virtual Machine. I tried turning off the firewall on both too... CentOS was able to access the internet through my laptop right away without any configurations too.
Unless someone has an idea to resolve the above, I am also wondering about something else VirtualBox-related:
To see if it was possible to get around the above issue, I was going to install another CentOS virtual machine to see if I can get them to communicate both ways [if at all], but to do so, I think I have to install CentOS AGAIN on another allocated amount of hard disk space. This will take some time, so I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to just create a quick duplicate of the previous installation, if you wanted 2 different virtual installations of the same OS.

May 13, 2011I'm on Fedora 14 and tried to install virtualbox using yum install virtualbox It seemed to install but wouldn't run and I got messages saying there was an issue with it not recognising the kernel. I used the Add/Remove software function and added the right kernel but on reboot it didn't complete the boot up process. I get as far as the loading progress bar being fully loaded but don't get to the login screen I've tried loading earlier kernels to no avail - the same issue.
I can access the install via my live CD but I'm not that experienced a user and how to proceed. My guess is I need to remove all the Virtualbox components but I don't know how from where I am.

Mar 7, 2011Observed on two host systems both with openSUSE 11.3 32 bit using ext4: When a big files, in this case a 1.2 GB and a 1.7 GB is copied from DVD, usb harddrive or shared folder into a Windows 7 32 bit guest system, the copied file is corrupted. The md5sum has changed and until the guest system has been rebooted successive md5sum tests on the same file comes up with various results... After a reboot md5sum tests show consistent results, but a sum different from the original file.
