Problems installing OEL version 6 in Virtual Box

I am able to install only in text mode although I tried to install with desktop - X-windows and all. I tried couple of times I get the same result - i.e., text mode.

If you indeed selected all the items from the Desktop Group it should work. Is this a new installation or are you changing an existing installation. In the later case you might want to check /etc/inittab and make sure init level 5 is your initdefault. Are there any clues in /var/log/messages or Xorg.0.log?
Other settings you could check are your Virtualbox machine settings, in particular Video memory and monitor under the Display tab.

  • How do i install opensolaris without using the virtual box??

    hi.
    i am new to solaris
    i am currently using a windows XP OS
    i got down the opensolaris cd from SUN
    how do i install opensolaris without using a virtual box ?

    The OpenSolaris CD is a "Live CD". You can boot off of the CD, and either run the OpenSolaris operating system directly, or you can select the "Install" icon on the LiveCD desktop. You can find full instructions here: http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/IPS/getst1.html
    Do you want to keep your Windows OS on the disk? If so, then you want to follow the instructions for partitioning your disk (unless you already have a spare partition).

    Anybody else having problems installing itunes version 11 on a MacBook Pro? Is so, how can they be resolved?

    You need to tell us exactly what messages you are seeing.
    You posted this in the OSX 10.4 forum but your computer profile says you are running OSX 10.6.8  Which system version you are running makes a big difference.

  • Install Windows 7 in a Virtual Box VM using recovery disks?

    I have a new satellite A665-S5170, and I was thinking of installing Ubuntu Linux as the native OS, and then installing Windows 7 in a Virtual Box VM. Will the recovery disks work to install in VM, or are they propietary enough to only with with the real hardware?
    Thanks
    Bob

    Last time I did a system recoery in VMWare, I had to modify the recovery.bat file on the cdrom to skip the system check, as the virtual BIOS and hardware are completely different from the physical machine.
    In my situation a recovery was failing at the same point every time it ran on a machine so I was verifying that the new media a customer bought would complete the recovery process.  Turns out there was a penny stuck in the optical drive.

  • Problem installing trial version of After Effects CS4

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install the trial version of After Effects CS4 on Windows Vista Ultimate Service Pack 1 32-bit Operating System, Processor 2.4GHz, RAM 4GB.
    At the initializing stage it gets to 90% on the 'Checking System Profile...' dialog box, something flashes and then it freezes.
    I've downloaded it a second time in case of corruption.
    I've rebooted several times and retried it with no other applications running.
    I've run updates on any existing adobe products I have.
    Any ideas?  I've never had problems installing adobe products before.
    Thanks.

    Not your fault, known issue.
    a) Download the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility and install it
    b) Download the CS4 Cleanup Utility from Adobe's support pages
    c) Run the CS4 Cleanup, electing to remove all debris from your failed install
    d) Manually uninstall all instances of Adobe AIR products (Acrobat.com, Adobe Media Palyer) using Add or Remove Programs
    e) Launch the Microsoft Installer Cleanup and look for instances of Adobe Installer 2.0. Have them removed. Optionally, have it remove other Adobe stuff that may have been left over from CS4.
    f) Try to install CS4
    Note: The cleanup utilities will not remove anything physically, only clean out the installer, so they pose no danger to your system. You will only lose the ability to uninstall those programs from Add or Remove Programs.

  • Installing ArchLinx+Guest Additions in Virtual Box(error during guest)

    The Arch Linux install seemed to go through smoothly.  I installed it using the wiki page, rebooted, and logged in as root.  I am installing this for a class, so trying to follow the instructions to do so.  Next, we are supposed to install 'Guest Additions' for Virtual box using the instructions below:
    Now, you should install "Guest Additions" for VirtualBox. Guest additions allows you to share files between host and guest systems. This is very convenient for development as you will need to copy files back and forth between the host and guest operating systems. You can download Guest Additions at *link*.
         You need to start the virtual machine before you can continue installing Guest Additions. To do that, just select your VM name from the list on the left hand side in VirtualBox and click Start. After logging into Arch Linux, you should mount this ISO image just as you had mounted the Arch Linux ISO file. You can then mount the cdrom inside the Guest OS by doing:
    mkdir /mnt/cdrom
    mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom
    Now install the guest additions by doing:
    cd /mnt/cdrom
    sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run
    This will compile and install the kernel modules necessary for Guest Additions functionality. Please note that if you
    recompile your own kernel (later as a part of project requirements), you will have to run this again so that the modules are
    compiled and installed for the new kernel too.
    Under settings for VBox, I mounted the Guest Additions image file, started Arch Linux, logged in as root, and followed the instructions above.  I was able to do all of the above, but when I excute the last line, I am given this message:
    http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/3971/linuxd.png
    I have no idea where to go from here, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Also,  I feel like I have installed Arch Linux incorrectly.  All the videos and pictures I see show a GUI type interface, but all I am presented with is a text-based interface.  When I boot it up, it asks me to log in, and I am then taken to the command line, but I don't see the same GUI interface everyone else seems to have.  Is this normal for a basic Arch Linux install?  Thanks in advance.

    Arch has no GUI until you install one. Some people don't want a GUI, so it's left to the user. The base install has only a command line interface.
    You should probably read the Beginners Guide.
    In case you missed them, there's two short articles, also on the wiki that might help you understand Arch, Arch Linux and The Arch Way

  • Problem Installing older version of Adobe Flash Player Activixe (example vers.10 to 9)?

    Hello everyone, I have the problem that I do not know how to install an older version of Flash ActiveX, since trying to install version 9, or even 10.0
    .45, the error that comes out is not a recent version, and does not allow you to continue with the installation, prompting you to go to the site and download the latest one.
    The Flash Player Plugin installed, but only with that will not start the program that I want to start ..
    Before you install and uninstall the previous version of the ActiveX plugin, make sure there is no file flash.ocx (which are usually in C: windows/system32/macromed/flash), disconnect the computer from the Internet, all gate installation files of the most recent flash, everything from the pc, temporary reboot, install the older version but I always leave that mistake, I can not install older versions of Flash.
    I have to install older versions of flash10 eun to start the program, but I can not continue. Someone can suggest how to install a previous version of flash blessed ..?
    Thank you all, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ... a little early.: (
    See if you can figure out how do they install?
    Giorg

    Before installing an older FP version you must completely uninstall your current version.
    download the unistaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    close all browser windows and run the downloaded uninstaller
    restart Windows
    delete any remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash or C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash (64-bit)
    install the old FP version
    P.S. why do you want to install an old Flash Player?

  • Problem installing OEL 6.1

    I downloaded the 32 bit 6.1 iso and the boot iso. Confirmed the download with md5. The Dow pad was to a Winows 7 laptop. I extracted the zips with the Windows extract tool, and burned the files to cd and DVD with Roxio.
    I inserted the boot cd into a Vista desktop with the plan of overwriting Vista with OEL 6.1. The install failed the media check. It said some files were corrupted. I burned another cd with the same result. I think the download was good because of md5 check. It is hard to believe I had 2 bad burns.
    Is the Windows extract tool good for the extract? Any ideas?

    I have successfully installed OEL 6.1. I used my Boot CD, and ignored the Media Test error messages. I put the DVD ISO on a thumb drive. The installation process on the Boot CD asked where the DVD image was, I gave it the thumb ID, and the install went forward successfully. I did down load and use 7zip, but the extract had the same Media Test failure as before. My equipment is getting old, and maybe my BIOS needs updating. The CD and DVD drives are running before the operating system kicked in. Thanks for the suggestions. I think I lucked into the solution this time.

  • Problem installing SCE 2010 on a virtual machine

    I'm having issues while installing SCE on a clean Hyper-V virtual machine running Windows 2008 R2.
    I've tried several options:
    - all-in-one from scratch, no SQL or serverroles/features installed -> error 1603
    - seperate SQL and SCE Management Server -> Management server installation fails, error 1603
    Different variations including and excluding reporting and VM Management with the same results.
    I then went and tried to install tbe Management server on a physical box -> success!
    However, I can't use this box for SCE and need to virtualize the whole thing.
    I'll dig through the SCE setup log files to see where it goes wrong.
    In the mean time, any ideas/suggestions anyone?
    /edit
    Below  a snippet of the setup log. This is the part just before I get 'Return value 3':

    Hi Guys,
    I am having the exact same issue. I have verified all prerequisites and can find absolutely nothing I am doing wrong with regards to what is prescribed in the guides. I am also trying to install SCE 2010 on a Hyper-V guest on Windows Server 2008 64Bit. I
    tried several times and troubleshooted my way through all the blogs. This is what I have done:
    Re-imaged the server (twice),
    Verified NetBios and FQDN is similar,
    Opened all required ports first and also disabled firewall eventualy,
    Using Domain Admin account,
    Removed ISS and reinstalled(SCE still complaing IIS needs configuration),
    Removed ISS again and let SCE setup fix prerequistes (SCE still complaining IIS needs configuration),
    Also below please find my exact log... The sucess of my SCE 2010 installation is VERY KEY for us, but I believe for the product team as well. We are busy building an Enteorise Management Architecture in a hosted/multi-tennant environment and at this moment

  • Problem installing latest version of iTunes

    Hi. Since about version 6 of iTunes I have always had difficulty installing the latest version of the program. Whenever I go to install it i get the message:
    Could not open key: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp\CLSID. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    Then the installation rolls back. I have just bought an iPod Touch and would very much like to sync it. I read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1462
    which mentioned that possibly an earlier version of iTunes was installed using a different account. This is the case but i have deleted that account. I also entered the regedit and tried to change the permission on it but when i enter my own account it says 'Unable to save permission changes on QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp. Access is denied.'
    Is there anyway i can change the permission to my own account or get my old account back? I am using Windows XP on a dell computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Colm

    There is this rather unhelpful article on your problem:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1462?viewlocale=en_US
    You could try a general repair of registry permissions for Windows XP as in this article, it has fixed quite a few registry permission issues in the past.

    You need to be a confidant computer user to do it as it is quite an involved process. The script take a long time to run so be patient.
    It is a good idea to have your system backed up when to do this kind of thing.
