Hello all,

I'm trying to install lucid lynx 10.04.2 server on a virtualbox on snow leopard.

I have 2 server iso files freshly downloaded one i386 and one 64bit.

When I try to start the virtual machine with either one set to be the cd drive I'm getting the same error:

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Ub.
Failed to load VMMR0.r0 (VERR_SUPLIB_OWNER_NOT_ROOT).
Unknown error creating VM (VERR_SUPLIB_OWNER_NOT_ROOT).

Couldn't find anything on it on google so I'm trying to see if anyone else has dealt with this issue. Thanks much in advance!

edit: just downloaded the 32bit desktop edition to same avail

edit2: ran Disk Utility' replair permissions then restarted. New error VERR_SUPLIB_WORLD_WRITABLE (instead of VERR_SUPLIB_OWNER_NOT_ROOT)
