    [SOLVED] virtualbox 1.6 - no guest will install

    I have virtualbox 1.6 installed on hardy heron but any guest i try to install (xp, vista, ubuntu) fails, the various operating system installers just say files corrupt or couldn't copy files to hard drive. Has anyone had this problem or know of a fix?

    thanks in advance,
    dje

    have you tried 1.5.6?
    I had alot of trouble with 1.6.0 but not the ones you've said.
    Mine just doesn't like my setup lol
    Code:
    wget http://www.virtualbox.org/download/1.5.6/virtualbox_1.5.6-28266_Ubuntu_hardy_i386.deb
    I feel so old... so very old
