Anyone else here use VirtualBox?

Anyone else here use VirtualBox?

I am locked out of my VirtualBox forum account.

The Oracle login system to the VirtualBox forum appears to be broken for me. I have tried logging into my forum account with both Firefox and Brave. I even tried a Firefox profile with absolutely no
extensions.

I need to post feedback that the latest update to 7.2.8 has broken ability to boot OS/2 properly. It boots to the point MPTS is loading, the NIC driver loads, it should be next reaching out to the
DHCP server for an IP address, and WHAM! VirtualBox freaks out and halts.

I have reverted back to version 7.2.6 and success resumes.

I have the crash log and crash screen which VirtualBox states I should go to the forum and post... thus the dilemma.

I even tried building a new Oracle account... the state combo box is completely empty, and is a mandatory field.

I seek someone with working VirtualBox forum access to post to the forum that my ID is locked out and/or post feedback to the thread seeking version 7.2.8 about what happened in my case.

I am thankful,

GitHub?! Most odd....

I guess I can try that, and include mention that my VirtualBox Forum account is locked out. I appreciate!


And worked...

[Bug]: OS/2 no longer completes booting up on build 7.2.8, must revert down to 7.2.6 #683

And I mentioned my difficulty getting logged into the VirtualBox forum on the same bug report thread. Hopefully both are soon resolved.
