Hey everyone, I’m diving into the world of Home Assistant and decided to give HAOS a try on my VirtualBox setup. I’ve been using HA on Docker for a while now, but I wanted to explore some of the add-ons and see if HAOS would offer a smoother experience.
So, I followed the installation guide, adjusted my BIOS settings, and set up the boot order as instructed. But here’s where I hit a snag—I’m getting an error message during boot, and I’m not quite sure what’s going wrong. I’ve reached out on the Oracle VirtualBox forums, but no luck so far. It’s got to be something simple I’m overlooking, but I could really use a fresh pair of eyes or some tips from the community.
I’ve tried a few troubleshooting steps: checking the VM settings, ensuring the disk is properly attached, and even trying different ISO versions. Nothing seems to work. I’m starting to think it might be a configuration issue, but I’m not entirely sure. Has anyone else encountered similar problems when setting up HAOS on VirtualBox? Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated!
On a lighter note, I’m really excited about the potential of HAOS. The add-on ecosystem looks promising, and I can’t wait to dive deeper once this installation issue is sorted out. Fingers crossed for some helpful insights from you guys!
Cheers,
