--- Comment #2 from Martin Birgmeier <la5lbtyi@aon.at> ---
After some experimentation, the problem turned out to have a quite different
cause.

On both hosts, the same emulated harddisk is available: on the AMD machine
directly via a vmdk file pointing, on the Intel machine via iSCSI.

However, the file holding the emulated harddisk was not available. On the A=
MD
machine, this only caused VirtualBox to note that the machine cannot be
started. On the Intel machine however, the file seems to get exported as a
zero-sized disk; this in turn seems to trip up VBoxSVC.

So there are two issues: One, VBoxSVC gets confused about the announced but=
 not
really existing iSCSI target, and second, the iSCSI daemon blindly announce=
s to
export a file (with zero size) which does not exist (and cannot be created,=
 its
path not being available).

I think the bigger problem lies with the iSCSI subsystem announcing a target
which does not exist. I'll try to reassing the issue to the base system.
