I wanted to move a virtualbox virtual machine from my Mac to the new Fedora Linux box I have just got started. It has an AMD Sempron processor.
As it says in the instructions, I used VBoxManage clonehd to make a new VDI file, then copied it over to the Linux box.
The virtual machine was a 64 bit Ubuntu 8.04.
I used virtualbox to create a new Linux Ubuntu, then added the copied VDI file. However, when booting up it complains the I have a i586 kernel and not an X86_64. But I don't. The Fedora install is X86_64, I verified it with "uname -a". The package manager says that VirtualBox is for X86_64. The virtual machine itself is x86_64.
Is this a bug?
