Just a tip, I couldn't see any other references so....here goes.
Please disregard/move/delete if this has been covered.
Today, I attempted to install the 64-bit RP in Virtual-Box on Win 8 RTM 64-bit.
It failed. So I updated to the latest(?) version I had (4.18). Still no joy.
I suspected that it was an issue unique to this RTM installation, as V-Box
worked perfectly when running on the CP or RP. I had not previously tried
V-box on the RTM.
Then, the penny dropped, so to speak....I'd enabled Hyper-V to have a look at
it a couple of weeks ago, and hadn't disabled it again after doing so.
Disabled Hyper-V, and the RP installed faultlessly in V-Box on the first attempt.
It seems that Hyper-V will run with V-Box installed, but V-Box won't work
properly if Hyper-V is enabled.
Hope this is of assistance to someone.....
