new I7 machine running Win7, and wanted to install Linux in VirtualBox
I downloaded Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon and Ubuntu
Both fail during installation "Kernel panic, not syncing, no working init found"
Downloaded both installations again from alternate mirrors
Removed and reinstalled VirtualBox, Failures repeated.
Is this hardware incompatibility or can anyone recognise what I can do different except give installation ISO to the installation to boot from?
OPenSuse does install, so too WinXP
