Unable find a live file system on the network #1399

Closed vawaver closed 7 months ago

Describe the bug

It is impossible to install LiveCDs :

The installation process halted due to an error - Unable to find a live file system on the network. It appears that only 75-76% of the installation images from the server have been downloaded.

I attempted to download images for local installation, but encountered the same issue, with only 75% downloaded from the source. An intriguing observation is that regardless of the operating system I download, the file size of the downloaded image remains constant at 1999 MB.

How much memory does your vm have?

vawaver commented 7 months ago

My VM has 4096 MB assigned.

jkoelker commented 7 months ago

Have you tried with more? All of these are booting for me with 8gb.

You were correct; everything is working fine after upgrading the memory to 6 GB. It would be beneficial to include this information in the official documentation. The client should have a minimum of 6 GB RAM for LiveCD to operate smoothly.
