Virtualbox Vt-x

[Auriville Cha]

Readingsome blurbs about Windows 7 and the virtual XP feature requiring

hardware virtualization got me curious so I checked the one notebook I have

with an Intel processor. According to all the info I can find, the

Core-duo chip I have does in fact support hardware virtualization but it is

disabled and the BIOS has no provision for turning it on. Is there anyway

to enable that feature outside the BIOS?

Ps. if you are going to give Virtualbox a go then get the rpm from the

virtualbox website and not from the SuSE repo`s apparently the USB support

is better, not tested here only had time to install XP and do the updates no

chance a playing yet.

I'm running an OSX VM on unRaid 6.3.3. I'm installing Docker for Mac but it won't let me start the software saying the CPU does not support virtualization. I've tried adding the boot flag for virtualisation on kvm_intel and adding the hyper-v into xml as suggested in this thread:

Hmm docker tools or docker for mac either uses virtualbox or OSX native virtualisation. I've just read you can use vmware fusion with docker-machine so I'm giving that a crack since spaceinvader has shown that will work.

There are a few reasons this can happen. The most common is a lack of free space on the local drive so the VM disks cannot be successfully copied resulting in this error. Another cause for this error can be if the copy sequence failed for some reason on the first try and directory still exists and an error is encountered attempting to unpack into the same location. First validate that you have ample free space available for making a copy of the local VM. Then run a destroy to ensure everything is clean for the current project (vagrant destroy -f) and then bring the guest up again (vagrant up).

Another cause could be that the original box that was downloaded and unpacked is some how corrupted. You can try doing a vagrant box remove hashicorp/bionic64 and then running a vagrant up again and letting it re-download the box to see if it resolves the error.

With the error being generated by virtualbox being some what generic, I would suggest opening the virtualbox GUI directly and attempting to create a new VM with an ISO and determine if that succeeds correctly. It may be that there is an issue with your local virtualbox installation and running directly in the GUI mode may provide some clues as to the underlying issue.

You are encountering this error because you do not have virtualization enabled in your bios settings. You will need to restart your machine, update the bios to enable virtualization (vt-x) and then boot your system.
