What configuration did you try and had problems with?

I don't have a clue what the mpptable looks like in virtual box. My guess is that it
is buggy and untested like so many mptables these days.

This example failed because mpparse said bus 0 was ISA. Which is a
pretty bizarre thing to do, especially when bus 0 is pretty clearly
PCI. That does sound like a buggy MP table.
