[Lubuntu-desktop] alpha2 image boot problem
Hi Julien, I tried installing alpha2 on virtualbox, it does not work (doesn't boot). I usually install it (test it) as a fresh virtual box installation before I put it on a disk partition as a stand alone OS. I red the list, someone else also mentioned this problem. Is this a bad iso? Are you gonna regenerate the alpha2 image soon? What is the plan? thanks Zoltan ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I have VB 4.0.2 under OSX, I created a new virtual machine, with all default settings. Did not booted yet, just clicked on Settings. Under Settings -> System, I have Extended features. By default "Enable IO APIC" is not checked, so it's not enabled. Did not found any ACPI settings. Any help is welcomed. Thanks.

Thanks in advance.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] alpha2 image boot problem
I've tried Lubuntu alpha 2 in VirtualBox 4.0 too and it didn't boot. However, Natty works just fine...

It's not exactly a "bad ISO" if it boots on real hardware... so it may be a bug in virtualbox that is triggered by something unusual in the ISO. Since I would really like to be able to use Lubuntu ISOs in virtualbox, I am in the process of learning how to create them in a Ubuntu-like way. When (if?) I succeed, I will hopefully be able to track down this issue further. When I built a "sort-of-but-not-really" Lubuntu ISO using live-helper, that ISO *did* boot just fine in virtualbox for me. But that's not how Ubuntu does its livecd ISO creation. So, now I should learn about and play with germinate, and livecd-rootfs, and debian-cd, and ubuntu-cdimage :) Is there already a LaunchPad bug for this issue? If not, please do create one!
