KVM: no hardware support, SGOS fails to boot in VMware Fusion 8.5 #198

Open vivami opened 7 years ago

vivami commented 7 years ago

I performed an install of alpha_2016-12-30_1 using VMware Fusion 8.5 on macOS 10.12.2 on an i5-6267U.

With Intel VT-x enabled on first boot I experience the following:

If I disable the VT-x, I get: kvm: no hardware support

Live mode works, but an install results in this - confirmed - doesn't complete boot.

Anything we can do to temporarily fix this issue? Thanks a lot in advance!

my installation has the same problem but seems to boot flawlessly into "recovery mode" (i assume by "live mode" dma meant booting live from the install media). this is just the standard boot option any debian installation has, right? i'll try using it like this for now...any relevant security caveats for recovery mode?

jallphin commented 7 years ago

Can confirm both the problem, and that recovery mode works. Can we get an answer on what (if any) security caveats exist in recovery mode?

The problem is on some video cards running in the kernel rather than in the X driver does not work properly.

on grub menu, edit boot option parameters (ctrl + e) that change quiet splashto nosplashand press ctrl + xfor execution.

in order not to do so for each boot, you need update grub config file /etc/default/grub and run update-grub with sudo.

@mustafamizrak Had the same on ESXi ... quiet splash -> nosplash fixed the boot problem

I can confirm that @mustafamizrak solutions solves my issue. Thanks a bunch!
