Build 6.0.11826 on OS X BETA 10.6.5 (10H563) fails
FYI anyone running OS X 10.6.5 BETA:
I just updated to build 6.0.11826 on beta Snow Leopard 10.6.5 10H563 and all of my XP vm's are dead. Looks as though the virtual disk is scrambled as it fails with messages about missing login dll's or registry corruption. Hard to get the exact messages as the Mac then crashes with the dark curtain shortly after.
I have rebooted, reinstalled and have the same issue. I reinstalled the previous release of Parallels 6.0.11822 and one vm appeared to recover itself after a registry corruption auto repair, but the other is toast.
To add information, my wife upgraded at the same time and is fine with the difference being she is on a Core 2 Duo iMac and I'm on an i7 iMac and she is not running the 10.6.5 beta but the latest released OS-X 10.6.4 (10F569), so this appears to be an issue with the latest beta Snow Leopard.
I have filed a support ticket on this,
Chuck
