Changing a VM's architecture to 64-bitįirst go back to the main window of VirtualBox, and select "Settings".įrom here you can access the various hardware settings for a given VM. So if we change the VM's architecture to 64-bit we should be OK. However if you reboot it and this time select "Live (amd64 failsafe)" you'll get a huge clue as to what's wrong. If you select "Live (amd64)" your VM will seemingly hang without any notification of what's gone awry. No big deal, this is accessible under the "Storage" menu item under the "Settings" for the new VM. Here's the issue, if you haven't guessed by now.Īfter going through the wizard to create a VM you'll need to attach the downloaded ISO to your newly created VM. VirtualBox doesn't really help the situation either, since it never offers you an option to change the architecture so you're left to figure this out on your own.
I'm embarrassed to say this but this one stumped me for a day before I realized what was going on.
