Do NOT install VirtualBox 6.0.0!

[Jacob Klein]

Hey folks,

I wanted to give a word of caution.
There is a bug with VirtualBox 6.0.0 that will make your VM tasks stop working.
So, for right now:
Do NOT install Oracle VirtualBox 6.0.0!

I'm tracking the issue here:
https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/18212
... and expect them to fix it in an upcoming minor version bump, probably in January 2019.

Regards,
Jacob Klein

Was this bug fixed at this point btw? Did someone test it out?

Per the link in the first post ... it was fixed in Oracle VirtualBox v6.0.5 Test Build 129220.
