[Grml] grml virtualbox

[John G. Heim]

I am trying to create a grml virtualbox virtual machine. My problem is 
that it hangs during the boot from the live iso image. I'm blind so I 
can't see the screen but I took a screen shot and ran an ocr on it.  The 
last 2 lines say this:

a it ganr sgsten hangs nan, disahie udeu uith buutuptiun "nuudeu .
a starting the hutplug euents dispatcher: udeud.

When grml is booting, at some point it says something like, "If your 
system hangs now disable something or other". I am thinking that is what 
is happening. But the ocr is so bad I don't know what to disable. Can 
somebody tell me what that whole message says?

I created the vm with vboxmanage at the command line. So there might be 
something wrong with the vm itself. Here is the output from showvminfo 
if it helps:
