Re: ubuntu 9.10 vm help

Running from a virtual machine does make it harder to know when to take 
steps to turn on the accessibility options because there's no CD that 
will start spinning at the right time. However, I think the boot prompt 
gives you about 30 seconds, so if you wait about 10 to 15 seconds after 
you start the VM, you should be able to enter the key sequence and 
everything should work as advertised.

ubuntu 9.10 vm help

[Josh]

Hi,

I've set up a Ubuntu 9.10 virtual machine on my netbook. First I have no way of 
telling when the boot screen comes up so I can choose accessibility. So anyway 
it logs in, I hit alt f2 type orca,  hit enter and set it up. then it asks me 
to log out I hit y and enter. it logs out. now I'm stuck. after a while I hear 
three quick drum beats. now what do I type? better yet can a beep be added so I 
know when I'm at the boot screen? and do I type username hit enter or password, 
enter, or do I hit tab to move to the next edit field? I wish Ubuntu talked 
from the beginning like the apple computers talk from startup almost. I'm glad 
also I'm running in a virtual machine that way my host OS is still fine.
