FATAL: No bootable medium found! System Halted. #40

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

First I had this problem: https://github.com/hfiref0x/VBoxHardenedLoader/issues/11 But the response from hfiref0x fixed that.

Then I had another problem: https://github.com/hfiref0x/VBoxHardenedLoader/issues/32 I'm not sure how I fixed it exactly, I think I just did step 5 again to fix it.

Next time I start VirtualBox and then the VM, The VM is running but there is just a string of text saying "FATAL: No bootable medium found! System Halted."

What is your vm configuration?

This error indicate that you have no storage devices to boot from. Check vm settings -> Storage -> Storage devices (SATA or IDE controller, attached disks).

What is your vm configuration?

I just followed your guide here: https://github.com/hfiref0x/VBoxHardenedLoader/blob/master/Binary/install.md

The only difference is that I chose Windows 10 64bit.

Base memory: 2048mb Boot Order: Optical, Hard Disk Chipset: PIIX3 Pointing Device: USB Tablet Extended Features: Enable I/O APIC Processor(s): 1 CPU (Because I don't really need anti-anti-vm, I just want to try using VBoxHardenedLoader. Extended Features: Enable PAE/NX Paravirtualization Interface: Legacy Hardware Virtualization: Enable VT-x/AMD-v, Enable Nested Paging Display Acceleration: Disabled Storage Attributes: Name = SATA, Type = AHCI, Not using Host I/O Cache Enable Network Adapter attached to NAT.

Is there any more information I can provide?

Do you installed any OS on this VM disk or have installation iso?

ghost commented 6 years ago

I don't think so. It's the first time that I use a VM.. I thought it's enough to choose the OS when creating the VM? Is there a missing step I need to do as well?

hfiref0x commented 6 years ago

You have to install anything. Otherwise from what it will boot?

ghost commented 6 years ago

I have created a win10 64bit .iso now. Can you please instruct me on how to install it on the VM?

hfiref0x commented 6 years ago

Load this iso into VM optical drive - goto Settings -> Storage. Run vm then and follow setup instructions.
