Changed the title.
VirtualBox is useless. No VM can boot in Mageia 5 RC.

Do you have the virtualbox addons installed (from virtualbox site) ?

If so, have you updated them to 4.2.28 too?
Comment 4 Thomas Backlund 2015-05-16 12:58:02 CEST

Comment 5 Thomas Backlund 2015-05-16 12:58:29 CEST
and 4.3.28 ...
Comment 6 Olivier LE ROY 2015-05-16 13:21:10 CEST
As far as mga5 virtualboxaddon is concerned, I had Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack 4.3.6r91406

I changed to 4.3.28r100309 and this solved the issue. Yes I admit I forgot to update the Extension Pack.

Thanks for your patience.
