Re: VirtualBox Info
Using VM's some years ago--and seeing them run now, nice! I'd forgot, if it wasn't for 'TestDrive' opening up qemu. So far, Vbox-4 is doing ok, after taking care of the kvm conflict. I've not thought to test anything other then ubuntu...its allot of info & stuff to learn and remember, as this stage. I understand no hardware testing can be done in VM's... With only the /daily releases sized for a cd, I'm limited. So off I go...to re-install a foobar'ed daily, on my second partition! - Original Message - From: Keagan Winterthieme To: ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Subject: VirtualBox Info Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2011 15:53:10 -0600 VirtualBox is fairly nice for testing, cause VM's are being used more, but Oracle VBox version 4 has a few bugs in it... I think they have fixed them now. Also Kubuntu 10.10 doesn't run in VBox during my demo runs. Others run just fine. So you'll just have to see. --techningeer -- Keagan Winterthieme http://www.technologybeforetime.com/ -- ___ Surf the Web in a faster, safer and easier way: Download Opera 9 at http://www.opera.com -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa

Re: VirtualBox OSE--Testing
Ohh, not good news! Guess I've wasted a whole lotta' of time here.. :( Will check if ios's are back to cd size. I'd use usb/dvd if I one. Will back out of current testscheck back later, stanz Just a note. If you are going to test your laptop, you need to do it with real hardware, not a virtualised one. So I would suggest you to create a bootable usb live disk.

Found reading glasses...
Hi all, I've found my reading glasses...can I edit my other mails? :) I completed the case:RescueModeGrub, and still figure to split a drive for the RescueModeChangeRoot. I reported 2 bugs, for the Alt64-OEM install and ask if someone has time to look and confirm I'm doing them ok...I'd feel better! :) As for reports/results? I'm still fuzzy on that.

Rescue Mode Grub--Questions
Hi All, Where am I supposed to be...? Not RescueMode (I don't find this option)? Rescue Mode Grub Case ID: res-004 Select Reinstall GRUB boot loader and press Enter/!\ Doing this will remove your Grub config and mbr and place a new automatic version in it's place. also Rescue Mode Change Root Case ID: res-005 /!\ This case requires more than one root partition 1. Select Choose a different root file system Should I have 2 OS's on this drive, to start? And when completed, is there a wiki template to post results? Or make one?

VirtualBox OSE--Testing
Hello All, While I have some time to test--I'm gonna jump right in! I've acquired both natty-desktop & alternate-amd64. Being their both to large for a CdRom, I'll run them in VirtualBox OSE. --Is this ok for these tests? I'm running the 'OEM install' and find some questions out of order. --Is this trivial, or can I assist in corrections? {I'm documenting..} If needed: My wiki TestingLaptopReport for Laptop specs.
