@Corona688: I tried the command

/bin/bash -c "gnome-terminal -x /home/<location_script>/startvm.bsh ; while true ; do sleep 1000 ; done"
But still the same problem. The gnome-terminal closes along with it the startvm.bsh.
Addition Info: Im comfused right now since the command above will loop forever in the terminal where i execute the command. therefore the VM must still power-on but why its poweroff after the gnome-terminal or maybe the script exit.I short even "/bin/bash -c *******" terminal up and running or put it to background "/bin/bash -c ******* & " still vm poweroff. As if the gnome-terminal or maybe the script dies it dies also the command inside the script "vboxheadless".
