OpenSwitch VirtualBox Installation Error

[jmcarter9t]

Get the following error when attempting to install the OpenSwitch VM:

$ ./lvm create openswitch --iso onie_kvm.iso --bin PKGS_OPX-3.2.1-installer-x86_64.bin

Configuration:

• Fresh install of virtualbox 6.1 with the version-matched Extension pack.
• Linux Ubuntu 18.04 (I realize the instructions say tested on 16.04)
• The ISO and BIN were downloaded into the directory from which I run lvm.

The error message:

I can start virtualbox and run another vm just fine. I did a bunch of searching and most of the suggestions are seriously dated or just did not work.

Thanks!
