To get rid of this issue, you can use the following script to launch VirtualBox. To fix this, run regedit in Windows and add the following key to the Windows XP VM's registry: Then update the color depth in the "desktop properties" window. Sometimes Windows will autodetect the device for you. Typically after installing Guest Additions, a fullscreen Arch guest running X will be set to the optimal resolution for your display however, the virtual console's framebuffer will be set to a standard, often smaller, resolution detected from VirtualBox's custom VESA driver. These parameters can be defined with the VBoxManage command line utility. This works the same way as #Run a Windows partition in VirtualBox but the vmdk will contain the entire disk rather than one partion, and so you will not need to create a separate ESP or MBR partition as the one in the physical disk will be used. Two additional steps are needed in order for the mount point to be accessible from users other than root: Use the following command to mount your folder in your Arch Linux guest: where shared_folder_name is the Folder name assigned by the hypervisor when the share was created. When either VirtualBox or the kernel is updated, the kernel modules will be automatically recompiled thanks to the DKMS Pacman hook. VirtualBox is in constant development and new features are implemented continuously. However, once the new VMDKs are saved and you move on to another machine, you may experience problems launching an appropriate machine again. Alternatively the same can be accomplished from the command line using VBoxManage: efi will set the firmware for the virtual machine to EFI with the bitness matching the virtual machine's CPU. It can be bypassed by whitelisting VirtualBox: The first command will show if any other apps are already whitelisted. After the rather big installation step dealing with VirtualBox kernel modules, now you need to start the guest services. VirtualBox Guest Additions provides drivers and applications that optimize the guest operating system including improved image resolution and better control of the mouse. I made a snapshot after upgrading to VBox 6.0.12 and before installing the Guest Additions. You can specify the revision to use with -o compat=revision.
Now, we need to create a new virtual machine which will use a RAW disk as virtual drive, for that we will use a ~ 1Kio VMDK file which will be mapped to a physical disk. I recently upgraded to a new system, and instead of running Arch Linux natively I've decided to run it inside VirtualBox on Windows 10.
