Ubuntu on virtual box - problems

I recently installed Ubuntu server 8.04 on virtual box only to fing I got the error

0:6 Incorrect porcessor Kernel.

Anyone know what to do? I have tried the recovery mode and the apt-get install linux-generic

???

Thanks...

There seems to be a bug in the installer and the wrong kernel gets installed.

I'm installing the system on a VirtualBox at the moment and have encountered the same problem.

The solution is to reboot the VM from the installer iso image.
Select the "Rescue a broken system" option.
Go through the configuration options until you get to "Run a command from shell"
When you open the shell enter the following command without the quotes and press return:
"apt-get install linux-generic"
This will install the generic kernel.
Afterwards reboot the VM and select the generic kernel in the boot loader.

this doesnt work for me all I get is

E: could not find linux-generic

did you mount the first partition before choosing the "run a command from shell" option?

yes I did something like dev/sva1

this was the only working one.

Is the network connection working?

The network is enabled, and is connected to the Internet
