Can NOT connect to booted ISO #8

Dear Alfred!

I can't get this tool working yet. ISODrive boots my downloaded ISO files, so I see the message in the header, e.g. "Active: debian-10.1.0-armhf-xfce-CD-1.iso". But I can't connect to the UI of the booted image. Tapping on the ISO won't work. How can I connect to the ISO? Should it pop up in a new window?

Parameters: device: BQ aquaris m10 FHD OS: Ubuntu 16.04 OTA-9 (2019.06.06.) developer mode: On (I tried it with Off setting too.) ISO files: ubuntu, debian ISO-s

What kind of ISO files are supported? Only armhf? Ore everything?

Many thank's for your work! Greg

It's hard for me to understand what you are trying to achieve. For reference, have you tried with an Ubuntu ISO if that's booting?

I started the ubuntu 18.04.3 amd64 image and got the following UI: screenshot20191104_214207270

So the image is active, I guess it's booting, but I do not see the user interface of Ubuntu. It did not pop up in another window, so something is wrong. How can I access the UI?

This seems to be an issue with your graphics drivers because ISODrive doesn't do anything in that regard, it just provides the drive for the PC to boot up.

This is an old issue. But it is still open, so here's my € 0,02: The OP was expecting the ISO image to boot up on their mobile device. The OP did not understand they had to connect their device to a laptop or desktop and use that to boot into the ISO image.

Yeah, I guess so. I'll close this issue then. Thanks!
