Neither boot option, noudev or that longer one you mentioned, made
any difference. I can try the daily image but I think the problem is
probably with my virtual machine. I created it at the command line
with vboxmanage commands and it probably just isn't quite right.<br>
<br>
I might go back to vmware player. At least I had a working vm with
vmware player. But I don't like that there's no debian package for
it. And even with it's limitations, I do really like this screenshot
feature in virtualbox. I've been able to tell that my vm is hung by
taking a screen shot and running tesseract on the image. <br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
the message says: 'If your system hangs now, disable udev with
bootoption "noudev"'
Does adding boot option mgag200.modeset=0 help?
If this doesn't help either can you please test with a daily ISO
(from <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://daily.grml.org/">http://daily.grml.org/</a>)?
As a last resort you can use the noudev boot option, but then plenty
of drivers won't be available in the running system. So it would be
interesting to identify why it fails for you.

That's a virtualbox question though.
