System halted." message?

The VM 'hard disk' couldn't be read or there there is a problem with that work unit. You usually see that message when booting a new virtual machine that has a blank hard drive and no iso file to boot. You can try exiting Boinc and all tasks and restart it and then watch that work unit VM start. If it errors right away, just abort it. ID: 38744 · Reply Quote
