openSUSE stalls at “loading inital ramdisk” in VirtualBox
Boot failure: no errors, but I can't access the shellUnder guest virtual machine, Debian hangs when loading initial ramdiskCannot start X in virtualbox

}
I am looking to switch to OpenSUSE on my machine. So I decided to test OpenSUSE on virtual box to try it out. But when the installation was complete (with no errors) , the system stops at "loading inital ramdisk" I tried working with the grub boot options ( e at start up) and that fixed nothing. And my system will sit at this screen for hours (even over night) and not change. The version i am running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
update: I now find that my system is using a large amount of resources when my system is stuck at this point.

Can you try typing "e" from grub boot menu, scroll down to the "kernel..." line, press "e" again, and remove the "quiet" and "splash" options. Press 10 to boot and you should see the error.

The issue was virtual box itself. I had the paravirtualization interface set to "Legacy" and setting it to default fixed it and let me boot.
