I'm trying to install arch linux in virtualbox by following all the steps provided in the beginner's guide. After partitioning my virtual hard disk, mounting the partitions and installing the base system, I saved the state of my virtual machine by the option provided in virtualbox. When I resumed the next day, while generating the fstab file I get the following errors:
->end_request :I/O Error, dev sr0, sector 483256
more of the same with different sectors..
->
->SQUASHFS Error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0xbf0ff64
/usr/bin/genfstab: line 266: /usr/bin/findmnt: Input/output error
->SQUASHFS Error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0xbf7a040
->SQUASHFS Error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0xbf7a040
I can't understand if the error is due to some faults in executing the previous steps or something else.

I also have made the experience, that the installer dislikes being in a suspended WM. No clue why. Try to do it without suspending.

I just experienced this as well. My screen only turned black though. I had to type any key.
EDIT:
Had to go back to square one. I hope a well knowledgeable individual can look into this
