bug: macOS Installation hangs #1482

I confirm this bug has not already been reported

Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is. >> I have a Apple Logo stuck on less than a minute remaining.

I force closed the vm and tried again reinstalling, one time I had a system lockup as I ran out of memory including 10G swap space.

I tried using a 32G swap space and Installing macOS Monterey, after a long time like a few hours it felt like it was going to restart and it just showed a black screen for a while. I have done this 3 times now and I'm getting burnt out, Please tell me what I should do.

CPU: Intel Core i5 with 4 cores (2 cores allotted for big-sur and all 4 cores now for Monterey) RAM: 4GB (On which both Arch Linux and macOS run) + 32GB swap GPU: Intel Xeon E-3

Current situation: After installing Monterey today, I now have a black screen on which I force quit the spicy application from File >> Quit.

Below is a screenshot of when I tried installing big sur yesterday and it installed in 6 hours or so and I went through the 30 min waiting time and then I waited from 10:00PM to like 11:30PM when it still said "Less than a minute remaining" I had nothing other than this VM open.

Deleted all vm's used the git version made a fresh new mojave install that took 10 hrs. And I got to the Welcome screen. So, installation doesn't hang, Just takes a very loooooong time. Guess that's because of my PC.

But my mouse cursor only reaches half of the screen. Making this a new issue.
