> No, fano is the only one that decided to clear the situation and drop
the issue in the Trac - but nobody known how many users decided that Haiku
is "too raw to try" silently.
You could be right, but I think not. The users hasn't been silent on other
issues (boot problem, missing wpa support etc).
> So the joking about "reinstalling your computer" is unappropriate here.
:-(
That was no joke. I was going to ask him to test it on another computer,
but realized that it wouldn't exclude VirtualBox as the source of failure
(it would probably work). Reinstalling VirtualBox and Haiku (without
upgrading) will probably be enough. But if not, it wouldn't prove that the
problem really lies in Haiku. Reinstalling the computer – even if it
sounds drastic – would.
To sum up: I think the problem is either user handling error (setup of
VirtualBox) or a broken Haiku installation (due to upgrade from earlier
release). I would be surprised if it is an actual error in Alpha 3.
