-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Installation in Virtualbox works now with EFI and UEFI-GPT partitioning, but the system is not bootable then. It shows a black screen and a fully loaded CPU instead of booting up correctly. I have no idea, how to fix this, because I have hardly any experience with UEFI-installations. I tried this image: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso from 2014-08-18 with the same settings a beforehand, but with EFI enabled. Without EFI, there appears this error-message: - --- bios32_service(1229148196) : not present pci_init: no BIOS32 detected FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System halted. - --- I think, normally both should work, be installable _and_ bootable.
