Hi William.
Are you using the hammer filesystem? I have seen the debug screen in virtualbox when using hammer fs, you might want to try ufs. If not I can probably send you my config for virtualbox with dragonflybsd running on windows 7.
Cheers,
Ulfar

Hello Úlfar
And thanks for you ideas. I have imported Turnkey (core) VM which is a base ubuntu linux. It appears to work well enough. Though the network adapter may have an issue with my firewall. :-D
I have attached a screeen shot of the Fault I observe when booting from the ISO image.
As mentioned, my aim was to use the ISO as a install CD. Was that a false presumption?
I know about he MS virtualisation. It is a buy-out of someone (vmware?) .. I want to rely on an open source option. (I'll gracefully side-step the oracle thing. You may note that LibreOffice has taken the OpenOffice repository 'away' from Oracle? for example).
I'm not in that much of a hurry. I can wait on a stable dragonfly that is virtualbox or successor /alternative friendly. For now I thin there is something simple wrong with my approach or the way I've (assumed) the virtual box and the iso files interact.
Cheers,
Will

Try installing a small linux distro or live linux distro from a iso image. If they install and run with no problem than you can rule out virtualbox and windows xp as the culprits.. I would also try virtualpc from microsoft a free virtualisation product that you can download from microsoft.com.
Cheers.
