Hi Suvayu,
I still don't get it. I know you were "installing from a CD, so I went
to the hardware details tab and
selected the CD ROM drive in boot options as the boot device". From
which application did you get to the hardware details tab? How do you
create virtual machine? Do use Virtual Machine Manager? I have the
same questions as asked before. Namely:
How do you tell the VM to boot from CD (or in my case the ISO) ? Could
you say the actual steps you took - that would be great.
