Host machine: OSX Mojave
Virtualbox: 6.0.4
Tails: 3.12
Where I download virtualbox: brew cask install virtualbox
. NOTE: I had virutalbox installed quite awhile and using it with vagrant
and ansible
to test playbook and stuff, and did make sure everything was clean when trying to run tails.
Where I download the image file: from tails site download using torrent
How I attempted to run tails from ISO image in virtual box: steps follow from tails documentation, it was straightforward and tried it more than five times
Error occurred at: steps 7, from the tails doc at configuring virtual machine to start from an ISO image, and below are the detail error:
The medium '/my-path/tails-amd64-3.12.iso'
can't be used as the requested device type.
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: MediumWrap
Interface: IMedium {ad47ad09-787b-44ab-b343-a082a3f2dfb1}
Callee: IVirtualBox {d0a0163f-e254-4e5b-a1f2-011cf991c38d}
Callee RC: VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80BB0001)
Expectation: No error popup at steps 7, which at the adding tails ISO image, and the rest of the step and could successfully start tails up
Attemps to get it work:
Attempt one: I watched one video from youtube that was about 7 months ago running tails in virtualbox, the process was pretty straightforward but I still get the same error.
Attemp two: I googled about the issue and only found simliar error. Those are conflicting Disk ID, which I applied the solution but got no luck.
I don't really use virtualbox much so are there anyway I can know more about the error message or anyone knows how to do with this? Thanks beforehand and appreciate for your precious time and help.
