Setup & Installation / Trying to install in VirtualBox, getting SYS3175: access violation
« on: 2010.11.16, 13:16:13 »
Hi,
I try to use OS/2 Warp4 as VirtualBox guest, I was able to install, but have stability issues. Various programs crash with a SYS3175 (see attachment) error.
The programs do not crash always, most times they work. For example applying fixpacks is quite hard, since it often crashes, and I have to start again.
At the moment I try to build boot CDs with updcd but I fail since unpack2.exe fails often. The unpack2 program does, of cause, not crash at unpacking the same files.
And as said the unpack2.exe is only a example, many other also fail sometimes, with the same error.
My host OS is Ubuntu 10.04.1 64bit on one machine and Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit on the other one (two machines, no dualboot).
The guest OS I tried is OS/2 Warp4. I tried no fixpack, fp5, fp12, fp14 and fp15. I also reinstalled several times.
I'm getting out of fresh ideas now, can anyone help? Did anyone successfully install and use Warp4 on VB?
greetings

PS: I attached the error window
