Good as far as I can tell. How about storage?
Select "Unifi Controller-2.vdi". How much storage does that drive have?

The issue isn't with the vbox vm it's self, during the final phase of installation the VM would just hang, repeatedly. We went through the install twice.
Each time at the same point it just hung. He has another VM there called Unifi Control that was up and running, but acting weird as well.
-
Then it sounds like an issue with either VBox or the bottom OS (Win10). Experiencing any other weird issues? Otherwise, I'd try the Hyper-V as suggested and go from there.

Apparently i dont have enough space for a fedora dual boot.. @JaredBusch do you have a walkthrough on how to use hyper-v?
You just "install the Hyper-V role" under roles.
He couldn't open device manager, he doesn't have access to install roles.
Roles are not under device manager.
oh ffs. . . are you on your literal high horse today? . . .
This has nothing to do with being literal or not.
You were telling him to look in the wrong f***ing place.
Even Caramel (Jared's horse) knew where to look!
I sure did. I rock on Hyper-V.
We now have animals fluent in English as well as technical lingo on ML? Awesome. Welcome @caramel!

nothing weird other than VBox not wanting to finish the isntall

even though this is a new install of Windows 10 (over a month old now), it's easy to mess it up.
I'd start by uninstalling Virtual box, reboot and reinstall then try making your VM's again.

Easily it's just a compatibility problem with drivers.

So there are three things that can crash here and it is not always clear which is doing what. But is Windows, VirtualBox or Ubuntu the thing that is stopping?

I think its VirtualBox. might be ubuntu.

It wasn't obvious from what was visible. vbox was responsive up until the last step of installation (near the point of restarting the vm to complete install).

Do other VirtualBox functions keep working even after that VM stops? They might even if VBox crashes, but just wondering. I've seen this as a more general case before and normally it is the client VM lacking drivers.
-
@scottalanmiller Yeah vbox remained functional, just this install was weird. It wasn't "Not responding" but was simply hung.

Then my gut says it is Ubuntu that is the issue.
-
And that is not the current Ubuntu, which can at times be an issue.

Re downloaded ISO, unless the MD5 matches

Download a current ISO, not an out of date one.

Soo guys.. I did what @Dashrender suggested and unistalled and reinstalled VirtualBox and rebuilt my VM. and .... https://i.imgur.com/VBUeySj.png
the install finally went through! now to update/upgrade my Ubuntu Server (right?)
and try this all again.
