Unable to Mount VBOXGUESTADDITIONS on FC22 (4.0.4)
by Stephen Beckwith
Greetings,
I recently had some issues with my virtual box setup (ran out of
physical disk space, bummer, really hoses up the kernel booting :( )
So. . After some trial error, here's what I got:
HOST: MAC OS X 10.10.5
VBOX: 4.3.32 r103442
GUEST: FedoraCore 22 - LXDE Edition
Install, etc. went OK (though did take a couple of tries). . .
When I try to in VBOX to insert the GuesAdditions (needed to build for
shared folder support and bigger screen), the 4.0.4 kernel selected in the
boot screen will NOT mount this CD image (located in the virtual box
application on OS X).
I get a "Status 32: Mount: unknown file type iso9660".
When I boot into the 4.2.3 kernel (save VM version/program) - things worked
"better" - with the exception that it failed to build the X-11 support, so
my window won't go full screen (27" monitor) - but the Shared Folders are
there, which is more important to me.
Googling didn't shed any light on this issue, and it seems to be more of a
"kernel" issue than the Virtual Box issue.
Anybody else experience a similar result with this kernel version?
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Wifi and DHCP
by Fred J. Tydeman
I have a multiboot system that includes 32-bit versions of Fedora 20, 21, 22, all with LXDE.
On Fedora 20, wifi works using automatic DHCP.
On Fedora 21 and 22, wifi fails using automatic DHCP. But, if I manually configure the
ip, netmask, and gateway, it works.
Suggestions on what I should check and/or change?
