[Bug 1531455] Re: reboot under Oracle Virtual Box not possible

 

Switching over to virtualbox, as it appears an issue with their kernel
module (i.e. not linux kernel issue).

** Description changed:

  Running 16.04 server without X under latest Oracle Virtual Box 5.0.12 on Windows. After issuing 'shutdown -r now' the following boot process is not successful and hangs with message:
  ---[ end of Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mound root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
  
  If using 'shutdown -h now' and then staring the machine anew from
  Virtual Box manager, then the system starts as it should. Thus, for
  short, warm reboot hangs and cold reboot operates as desired. I have the
  feeling that this behavior was introduced with kernel 4.3, but I cannot
  swear on it.
+ 
+ WORKAROUND: Switch network adapter type to Intel Pro/1000 MT Desktop
+ from paravirtualized network (virtio-net).
