Ok, some interesting info, and a fix / work around. To install a guest (Tested this with Ubuntu Gutsy Beta), remaster the ISO with the bootlogo file removed. At the boot line, use vga mode, eg:
install vga=791 Your guest installation will install fast, and perfectly. Anthony has written a small C application to remaster an ISO with the bootlogo file removed, I expect he will release the code shortly. The second option , that I have not fully tested, is to tell KVM/QEMU to boot the kernel and initrd directly off the CD/ISO, this therefore by- passes the gfxboot completly and goes straight to installation. I will attempt to finish testing this out, and with other guest distros if possible, this evening. -- Gutsy Tribe 5 (KVM GUEST) needs -no-kvm to install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
