Yeah so I am running this in a VM, right? after I install it, I get this on bootup. system itself works fine using cli, but KDE is basically done for. Any thing to do on my end? I am using QEMU. could that be some of it?

error

Apologies for the late reply, I haven't kept up with this meme project.

I never tested Hannah Montana AE on qemu. Because it is so low end and old, I just used virtualbox. I've actually also had decent success running on raw, non virtualized, hardware(boot from USB).

You'll have to check, but I'm not certain the original hannah Montana Linux runs well under QEMU either. KDE 4.2.2 was not super stable when it was released, let alone now when it's squeezed unto a distro it was never meant to run on.

Original download link is dead for original Hannah Montana Linux, you can still get it here: https://archive.org/details/hannah_montana_linux_x86_basic_edition

@ThePoorPilot Hey man I get it, I just figured you may want to know. Don't know if all users were all Oracle Vbov bros or Qemu dudes. thank you for your response tho!

@TheFirstMormon I didn't know you'd ever reply! Did you manage to try OG Hannah Montana Linux on qemu? I'd be interested to see if it works

@ThePoorPilot I really don't use Github, I use it now for my Dotfiles. I have not managed to try Hannah Montana on QEMU yet, I have had some software issues recently, However I will eventually get to that! Cheers mate.
