On vbox forum official they do not want to help us for portable vers.why.?įrom: Re: vbox portabe do not run with win 10 ( #33) Swith win 8.1 worked fine even if the snetcfg.exe had already some problems. Only with bridge you get the 2 crosses green The bridge issue is very important cause it should be very useful to be able toįor ex using emule in vbox is impossible with nat cause you get Always 2 red crosses for server and kad drag and drop only from guest to host but not from host to guest.

VirtualBox's own documentation points out that all OSs slow down because of all that switching, and advises you to stick with software virtualization if possible.Yes portablevbox works on win 10 but with these 2 issues: So the CPU can switch back and forth between 32-bit and 64-bit operating modes.īut realize to do so, to maintain a semblance of simultaneous operation amongst all guests and the host, the CPU has to constantly activate different VMs. If things work the way Stefan says, then when you running a 32-bit host and want to run a 64-bit guest, the virtualization software issues a special VM command to the CPU to tell it to run a different VM.

I've not had the opportunity to run in this environment I have the CPU for it, but neither VirtualBox or VMWare currently supports starting from a physical partition from within a Windows host. Now, if you have hardware virtualization support, Stefan points out you are no longer constrained by your host OS. The reverse, however, is allowable, since 64-bit is a superset of 32-bit. So you simply can't run a 64-bit OS on top of a 32-bit OS. A 32-bit OS is only using 32-bit registers, 32-bit address space, etc. With software-only virtualization, you must live within hte confines of your OS. Without the hardware virtualization support that Stefan alludes to (Intel VT and AMD-V, respectively), virtualization is being done completely in software. The answer is a little complicated, and I thank Stefan for correcting me. Rusl wrote:Also, Why should it matter so gravely if the kernel of the host is 32bit?

#Virtualbox 64 bit does not work update
But thats not too hard anyway, just annoying with the Ubuntu update every couple of months.Īlso, Why should it matter so gravely if the kernel of the host is 32bit? Isn't the guest running virtually so that it uses its own kernel? I understand that you need the host to recognise the hardware so that it can set the guest to work on it. My only dissappointment with VBox is reconfiguring each time my kernel upgrades. I'll try that if I have to but I prefer the VBox I'm comfotable with. Is it a question of VMWare then? I really prefer Virtualbox because I couldn't figure out VMWare when I first tried it (I was a pretty newbie at linux then). Is it possible then to configure the CPU to work that way? (Maybe with a 32bit host kernel that recognises the dual CPUs) How is it acheived? I have a somewhat new CPU: an AMD64x2 3800. Thanks for the great software! rusl Posts: 13 Joined: 7. Anyone virtually testing OSs in on a 64 bit VBox will of course want this support too. Maybe Sun can kick in some cash now that they bought the farm!? 64 is the way of the future and a lot of people are going to need this. I really hope the 64 bit OS support comes soon because this is a great program and it would just make it better. It has really worked well for me where other software was more convoluted to figure out. I really love this software, so much I have been thinking of investing in buying it. It would be WAY better to do this virtually.Īnyways, just wanted to chime in because this is the first thing I have needed that VirtualBox didn't do. But the dual boot is annoying and I have a lot of configuring and rebooting to do of my new 64 bit system. But, a lot of people are like me with an OS from before 64 was worth running and needing to transition. I know the somewhat more sensible route is a 64 host and 32 guest. The transition to 64 bit CPUs is slow and it effects every OS. I think a lot of people will be in similar position to me.
#Virtualbox 64 bit does not work 32 bit
This is because the 32 bit kernel is still more stable/reliable/supported in general. But I want to be able to load a 64 bit guest. What I am doing is running a 32 bit host on a 64 bit CPU. I want to echo the necessity of the 64 guest support.
