I have a problem with Android-x86 and VirtualBox.

I had never worked with Linux before, so I don't understand what's happening. After creating a new virtual machine and choosing "Install Android-x86", I get this:

Kernel panic

My settings: configuration

I've tried using android-x86-4.2-20130228.iso and android-x86-4.2-20121225.iso

What's wrong?

The problem was that virtualization was turned off in my BIOS settings. It must be on for Android-x86 to run on VirtualBox.
