Subject: Re: Hung in VirtualBox. Why?
It was a blonde moment... :)
I actually did my research, found, and fixed the issue.
It was a combination of several problems that I don't quite understand and
that I don't quite care either.
It's working now.
Thanks!
Enrique

PS: But it certainly feels cozy to have this resource to come crying... :)
