Hi
I am trying to install Debian in file, using QEMU and following this
guide: https://wiki.debian.org/QEMU . I do this:
$ qemu-img create debian.img 2G
Formatting 'debian.img', fmt=raw size=2147483648
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -smp 2 -hda ./debian.img -cdrom
../debian-8.2.0-amd64-netinst.iso -boot d -m 2048
which runs the Debian installer.
Everything works fine (a bit slow) except that it always fails on
"select and install software" step. Why?
How can I access syslog? I tried to mount a partition contained in
debian.img and look for syslog there, but there is no such file.
I am running:
Linux dellsf 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u4
(2015-09-19) x86_64 GNU/Linux
