GNS3 - IOSvL2 crashing on boot

[Pedro Matias]

I get the following error message: https://pastebin.com/WEwAvbsC
The network is shown in the image. I literally just press start all devices, connect to console and get that. I tried googling the error but nothing shows up.

This is cisco community, you need to ask this question in GNS3 forum

high level check what resource you have - make sure you have right RAM and CPU available - check starting each node .

Try different image see that works.

Hello,

your IOSv-L2 version is slightly different than the one I use:

Cisco IOS Software, vios_l2 Software (vios_l2-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 15.2(4 .0.55)E, TEST ENGINEERING ESTG_WEEKLY BUILD, synced to END_OF_FLO_ISP

The most likely reason for your issue is that the VM version is incompatible, or the vios_l2 is invalid. What is your email address ? I'll send you my version, install that and check if it boots...

Thank you for your availability! A fix was found
