Ok, did that, even tried pulling the a-c power, still got the same
["This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detects an i686 CPU."]
I lost interest in virtualbox, at least on that computer. Installed KVM
which "works" well enough to install CentOS6 Live but I could not get it
to boot from the installed o/s. Other than those problems Fedora 19
works well, everything else I've done just worked without a hitch.
KVM works and boots CentOS6 on this Fedora 18 computer but it is newer,
I assembled it from new parts a few months ago. The Dell with F-19 on it
is older but usually works well, I may have found something it can't do?
I have to move on ...
Thanks all for the help.
Bob
