I've had it running for a while now, but don't dare do another update. 8 gigabytes of RAM Lenovo ThinkPad t420i
VMware just crashes when I try to open the appliance. VirtualBox dumped me at the UEFI shell, until I stopped the machine and unchecked EFI in the Motherboard tab of the System settings. Now the appliance runs and I can do actual documentation review. I'd like to do an upgrade some day. I wonder what broke it before?
