thank you for your reply.
I successfully booted Redox by modifying the memory to be greater than 1G.

I have exactly the same error with the latest VirtualBox (5.2.18) and Redox (0.3.5) on Windows 10
I have reserved 2GB memory for the VM but still doesn’t work

I am newbie here. Tried both 0.3.5 and 0.3.3 same issue.
After looking into above thread, tried to play with ICH9, PIIX3 and also the Storage controller to SATA. But no luck. Anyone can help?

If you faced that type of problem then you will do one thing just reset the device and by doing this you will see the problem will be solved.
