Get latest ISO from: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/pending/ 2. Pull out the kernel and initrd $ mkdir iso $ bsdtar xfp bionic-server-amd64.iso -C iso $ cp iso/install/vmlinuz . $ cp iso/install/initrd.gz . 3. Create QEMU disk $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 vdisk.img 4G 4. Launch ISO via QEMU $ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -cpu host -m 1024 -boot d \ -initrd initrd.gz -kernel vmlinuz -display none -nographic \ -hda vdisk.img -cdrom bionic-server-amd64.iso \ -append 'console=ttyS0 locale=en_US.UTF-8 priority=critical' 5. Proceed with the install by 1) enter user info and 2) select disk 6. Eventually the "Ubuntu installer main menu" will appear. Even if you click on "Install the system" the installation step will fail. ** Affects: debconf (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to debconf in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1736770 Title: debian-installer/main-menu changes priority Status in debconf package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: During a test install of Bionic it appears that the debian-installer /main-menu option changes priority from medium to critical part way through the test: Dec 6 04:18:55 debconf: --> INPUT medium debian-installer/main-menu Dec 6 04:18:55 debconf: <-- 30 question skipped Dec 6 04:18:55 debconf: --> GO ...
