* Q: I'm on Intel hardware, and I'm trying to boot Dapper, Edgy, Feisty,
Gutsy, OpenSUSE, etc... but kvm fails immediately.
* A: Yes, this is rather unfortunate. The issue is a limitation in Intel's
virtualisation extensions that don't interact very well with gfxboot. The evil,
hacky workaround is to modify the ISO to disable gfxboot. The following has
worked for me, but it might kill your cat or make your coffee go cold or make
other unpleasantries happen to you. You've been warned!
$ sed -e 's/GFXBOOT bootlogo/#FXBOOT bootlogo/g' < ubuntu-7.10-server-
amd64.iso > ubuntu-7.10-server-amd64-nogfxboot.iso
