You are welcome :-) My grub doesn's ignore it. Perhaps the version in Trisquel repos is not ready for your videoboard?

[Trisquel-users] Antwort: Trisquel Installer (debian-installer) for Trisquel installation on Xen as PV guest/DomU

2013-04-14 Thread holger . beetz
Hey there, I am afraid there is no Xen-specific bootimage for booting up a DomU. Is your host capable for full virtualisation ? I would go the standard installation approach (booting up the standard Trisquel ISO) as you normally would with KVM, Qemu or VirtualBox. Then you could try to

That's a bug, shouldn’t be there. Got an ATI/AMD GPU? You're in for a bit of a rough start but don't get disheartened, it's mostly good and not like this... You can try name: trisquel pass: [none] If that don't work, switch to VT1 (ctrl+alt+f1) and try to login there with the same

The -d signifies using a development version. Since 6.0 is in full release the -d shouldn't be needed anymore. Please remember to first apply all available updates for your current Trisquel setup first and disable multiarch.
