Hi, I have this setup: - Ubuntu Server 14.04.1: - QEMU version 2.2.0:
qemu-system-x86_64 --version QEMU emulator version 2.2.0 (Debian 2:2.2+dfsg-5expubuntu8+contrail3), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard I had downloaded fedora 21 installation iso: Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-5.iso I am trying the following sequence: qemu-img create -f qcow2 vdisk.img 10G I use "-curses", as this machine is a server, and X windows is not installed there: qemu-system-x86_64 -curses -hda vdisk.img -cdrom Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-5.iso -boot d -m 384 and I am stuck with a black screen with one line on it, in blue: 1024 x 768 Graphic mode. This screen does not respond to any keystrokes. except for that I can toggle to monitor mode with ALT/2, but this does not help at all. when I tried with "-nographic" instead of "-curses", the installation hangs. What should I do in able to boot successfully? Regards, Kevin
