[QUOTE="SkyboundSteven, post: 302332, member: 24345"] I can't remember the version now (screenshot feature was messed up AND the drive was accidentally wiped), But I do remember the OS I was trying to install on VirtualBox before this happened. It was Windows XP SP3 (2013 Sept). It kept hanging up at that dreaded partition screen with "Unknown format". Then I tried to somehow copy the virtual disk from other people and replace mine (resetted all settings after this). And well.....this happened. About that accidental wipe: I somehow clicked [B]Wipe[/B] on Tails in the disk VB was on. I thought the warning message said "[B]Disk space full[/B]", but actually it was "[B]Do you wish to continue?[/B]". (I was really sleepy at that time...my fault.) Since the disk only contained less than 720MiB of data, Tails [I]promptly[/I] wiped them (after you press Yes, it cannot be stopped). [SIZE=5][I][U]Please[/U], someone call me an idiot.[/I][/SIZE] About VB got messed up: Yep, somehow the main binary file was altered (MD5 did not match with official one). I think I installed something really naughty. *sigh* When I press Take Screenshot, it just gives me something like this: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/oekg2EH.png[/IMG] (Yeah...this is a simulated one, but it looked similar to this) [/QUOTE]
