Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Release: 16.04
=== Context ====
I try to install a virtual desktop: ubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso
I mount it:
sudo mount /tmp/ubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso /mnt2
Then i do:
virt-install -d \
--connect qemu:///system \
--name ubuntu0 \
--ram 2048 \
--disk pool=default,size=5,bus=virtio,sparse=false \
--network network=default,model=virtio \
--location /mnt2 \
--initrd-inject=/home/sssler/virtinstall/preeseed.cfg \
--extra-args="locale=en_US.utf8 console-setup/ask_detect=false
keyboard-configuration/layoutcode=sv file=file:/preseed.cfg vga=788 quiet" \
--os-type=linux \
--os-variant=generic \
--arch x86_64 \
--virt-type kvm \
--video=vga \
--noreboot
==== Expected result ====
I would hope that it would install
=== Actual outcome ====
It fails with the following output
