Oh right. It only boots to console after you install it. That's because live-config scripts will enable auto-login to desktop and console. To disable that in a live session, press TAB at the boot menu and edit the chosen boot entry to add 'noautologin noxautologin'. I don't know how to drop to console in qemu. I get the same as you (host system drops to console.) In virtualbox, right-ctrl-F2 works. fsmithred _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
