I am trying to create the VM using macos host. I did some small modifications in shell scripts and managed to boot VM but it got stuck at

Hello, get same problem. I run this under a Ubuntu server 20.04 (without graphic). I tried to run the vm with the Step 2 and Step 2b, nothing better. the vm is running i get the same "247/256 usable slides" of the UEFI shell procedure but I don't have any prompt I can't type anything. I have to ctrl alt supp reboot to return on the main system. On google I found similar resolved problem but they were running the VM with VirtualBox and get a prompt into the UEFI shell.

I fixed this in virt-manager by setting the CPU cores to 4 (I increased them to 6).

I faced the same problem, I was changed CPU cores, after giving CPU parameters as a default problem is solved. smp 4,cores=2 \
