<pre class="k9mail">Hi,<br /><br />i installed the SDK yesterday the first time. I have preinstalled VBox<br />4.3.22 and run into the same issue: Booting the VM end up in a black<br />screen, just showing some messages:<br /><br />tsc: Fast TSC calibration failed<br />systemd-fsck[62]: system: clean, 23245/262144 files, 244244/1048575 blocks<br />piix4_smbus 0000:00:07.0: SMBus base address uninitialized - upgrade<br />BIOS or use force_addr=0xaddr<br /><br />My quick and dirty workaround is to ssh into the VM and sudo reboot the<br />machine, then it will start without problems. I can see the same<br />warnings, but it won't pause.

why it's annoying me.

The journal<br /> output looks informative about the failure to launch a user-session<br /> but it's not a system I understand enough to fix, nor do I have time<br /> to spare to learn the inner workings of SystemD just to get a VM<br /> going. :)<br /><br /> On 24/02/15 14:50, Jarkko Lehtoranta wrote:<br /><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #ad7fa8; padding-left: 1ex;"> On 23/02/15 14:14, Cathal (Phone) wrote:<br /><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #8ae234; padding-left: 1ex;"> Thanks for your help Ritesh!

reveal the cause. It's a pity that VB images aren't as<br /> "plug and play" as commonly held. :/<br /></blockquote> Which Virtualbox version are you using? Please note that some Linux<br /> distributions have very old Virtualbox versions in their package<br /> repositories. For example the Debian Wheezy package repository contains<br /> Virtualbox 4.1.18, which was originally released in 2012. So I would<br /> first suggest trying out the Virtualbox 4.3.22 from <a href="http://virtualbox.org">virtualbox.org</a>:<br /> <a href="https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads">https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads</a>.<br /><br /> If you have the same issue with Virtualbox 4.3.22 and can SSH into the<br /> emulator, could you share the system journal output (sudo journalctl<br /> --system > journal.txt) of the emulator?<br /><br /> -Jarkko<br /><br /><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #8ae234; padding-left: 1ex;"><br
