Same kernel panic also occurs on the Windows version of VirtualBox 1.5.4.

Ok, I was able to confirm the problem. The bug comes from the version of syslinux.bin that we use in the LiveCD. I've just compiled a new one, re-mastered the LiveCD and booted fine on VirtualBox OSE.

I'll keep this bug open until we ship a new ISO which fixes that.

If you haven't done so, I suggest you to update the appropriate file in the ISO building environment that's in our servers. (Where is the file? CD-Bootloader-i686.tar.bz2? Remember that /Programs/BuildLiveCD/Current/Data/Packages-Devel-i686 must also be updated.) We'll probably forget about this if we just keep this bug as "green/resolved". My suggestion is to change the file in the server and then "gray/close" this.

Ok, so I'm closing it. I've commited a fix before setting this bug as resolved. For the record, here's the diff:

http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/tools/BuildLiveCD/Data/Packages-Devel-i686?cvsroot=goboscripts&r1=1.27&r2=1.28 [^]

And here's the commit message:

Log message:
Uploaded a new isolinux.bin. This new boot loader fixes bug 0000232.

I have just downloaded the iso again from the main server and I am still getting a kernel panic

I dont know what exactly you changed in the server but shouldnt it be ok?

This time I have 1.5.4 version and I downloaded the final 014 Gobolinux not the release candidate.

The ISO in the website is still the one you downloaded the first time. The next release/snapshot will feature the fix.

Resolved. Will wait until a release is made to close the bug.
