A PAE processor need to be declared for the VirtualBox application #284

Closed dufresnep closed 10 years ago

dufresnep commented 10 years ago

Yesterday I downloaded nixos-13.10.35663.bc3f4f3-i686-linux Open Virtualization Format Archive, but it did not start. The error message stated that it had to be stopped because trying to enable PAE over a virtual processor that does not have this feature.

Fixing it was as easy as marking the processor as a PAE/NX processor in the configuration. But I believed it would be better if the shipped OVF archive would have it already set that way.

I am using VirtualBox 4.3.8 (downloaded yesterday too).

The nixos project has merged into nixpkgs. You might want to close this issue here and report it in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/.
