    PC-BSD 7 isn't working in VirtualBox 2.0.2

    It starts up then gets to the login screen,
    After I log in the graphics look really messed up then it logs me back out.

    Was the iso corrupted? Did it install correctly?

    The install ran fine.
    How do I check the ISO?


    And here's a picture of how it looks before it logs back out:

    when you download the file from their website, it gives a md5 string under the download link. cd to the directory of the file you downloaded and type md5sum <filename> in a terminal. If the md5 string matches the one on the website, then the download is okay. If not, its broken.

    They are correct.


    Edit:
    I changed it to 800x600x16 with vesa and now it works.
    Edit:
    1024x768x16 also works.

    Yeah, I'd like to know too. I could never get it to work either!
