Description:

I had one CentOS 4.8 installed on virtualbox-ose-3.2.8-3 and everything worked fine. I did upgrade to virtualbox-ose-3.2.8-4 and the CentOS doesn't start.

I removed the CentOS 4.8 installation and after I tried to reinstall it but it shows failures in the hard disk. I tried to install others CentOS versions (5.4, 5.5) and they works fine.

Additional info:
* package version(s)

kernel26 2.6.35.7-1

virtualbox-ose 3.2.8-4.1

* config and/or log files etc.

I'm attaching screenshots about the failure.

Steps to reproduce:

Try to install CentOS 4.8 on virtualbox-ose-3.2.8-4.*
   vbox_centos_fail.png (33.8 KiB)
   vbox_centos_fail2.png (25.6 KiB)

I will try to install virtualbox-ose-3.2.8-3 and I will test the CentOS installation again.

I found the source of the problem: if in the section Storage Tree, the virtual disk has SAS controller or SATA controller, the installation process crash by disk failure; I had must choose one IDE controller.
