Unable to Mount VBOXGUESTADDITIONS on FC22 (4.0.4)
by Stephen Beckwith 21 Oct '15

21 Oct '15

Greetings, I recently had some issues with my virtual box setup (ran out of physical disk space, bummer, really hoses up the kernel booting :( ) So. . After some trial error, here's what I got: HOST: MAC OS X 10.10.5 VBOX: 4.3.32 r103442 GUEST: FedoraCore 22 - LXDE Edition Install, etc. went OK (though did take a couple of tries). . . When I try to in VBOX to insert the GuesAdditions (needed to build for shared folder support and bigger screen), the 4.0.4 kernel selected in the boot screen will NOT mount this CD image (located in the virtual box application on OS X). I get a "Status 32: Mount: unknown file type iso9660". When I boot into the 4.2.3 kernel (save VM version/program) - things worked "better" - with the exception that it failed to build the X-11 support, so my window won't go full screen (27" monitor) - but the Shared Folders are there, which is more important to me. Googling didn't shed any light on this issue, and it seems to be more of a "kernel" issue than the Virtual Box issue. Anybody else experience a similar result with this kernel version? Any suggestions? Thanks! EmbeddedSteve

Wifi and DHCP
by Fred J. Tydeman 04 Oct '15

I have a multiboot system that includes 32-bit versions of Fedora 20, 21, 22, all with LXDE. On Fedora 20, wifi works using automatic DHCP. On Fedora 21 and 22, wifi fails using automatic DHCP. But, if I manually configure the ip, netmask, and gateway, it works. Suggestions on what I should check and/or change? --- Fred J.
