<pre wrap="">since I upgraded to 4.3.18-dfsg-1, my Window 7 VM crashes on boot: When I start it,
the Window boot screen appears, and before it disappears (and loads that blue background),
the VM window closes the the state in the main window changes to "Aborted".
Downgrading back to 4.3.14-dfsg-1 fixes the problem.
The kernel log (3.16 kernel, current Debian testing) only has this to say:
[ 97.043549] EMT-1[1843]: segfault at 618 ip 00007f0eab6bcc41 sp 00007f0ecb123ca0 error 4 in VBoxDD.so[7f0eab613000+172000]
I will attach the VBoxSCV.log file. Let me know if you need more information.</pre>

This is weird given the fact that I am using a Windows 7 VM running
absolutely fine.<br>
<br>
Couple of questions:<br>
<br>
1) Are you, by any chance, using the Experimental 3D driver ? There
are other reports, when using that driver.<br>
2) From your error logs (dmesg), it looks like the guest drivers
were inaccessible. Did you reboot your kernel after the update ?<br>
3) Is the virtualbox init service running ? That service is supposed
to set up the necessary environment.<br>
