Virtualbox: Windows returning an 0x80070570 errorcode during install.

I'm using VB 5.2.16 on Arch Linux. I've tried to install Windows 10 (with 3 different ISO images), and Windows 7. all of theme return this error message during the installation.

Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570.

I've tried to use a Vargant box (containing Win10 and VS15) instead, with no favorable results.

The box failed to unpackage properly. Please verify that the box
file you're trying to add is not corrupted and that enough disk space
is available and then try again.
The output from attempting to unpackage (if any):
x Vagrantfile
x box.ovf
x metadata.json
x packer-virtualbox-iso-1442644747-disk1.vmdk: truncated gzip input
bsdtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

This problem occurs only with Windows boxes, I've tested some Gnu/Linux distros, and they worked flawlessly
Are there some idea ho can I troubleshoot the problem ?

Re: Virtualbox: Windows returning an 0x80070570 errorcode during install.

Unless the installation only fails when using Arch, and works on other linux hosts, this seems to be an issue with the windows guest + virtualbox, and nothing nothing to do with Arch. Vagrant boxes arent supported here either.

Web search with the error code + 'virtualbox' provides many solutions for similar issues, usually related to either install media, or target drive.
