I hit a speed bump...


My Virtual Box image is corrupted and I have lost all my progress on Fusion Application Installation... lets say 40 hrs of it... :(

Why didn't I back up?
- I did, the corruption started there.

I use my old machine as a Storage Server. After a major milestone during the installation, I bring down the virtual machine and take a backup of the VM Image. Now the VM image refuses to start-up...

I believe the culprit is a 6 year old Hard disk.

(Luckily, I took a backup of VM after IDM installation and configuration)

At-least I don't have to start from scratch...
