Headless builds #68

Closed chrmod closed 8 years ago

chrmod commented 8 years ago

Does anyone know if headless builds are even possible? Tried it with vmware but they seem to hang on installation process. Didn't debug with VNC yet, but wanted to know if anyone tried it already.

Last I tested they worked, but that was a while ago. I'd be surprised if that they didn't though, because AFAIK the guest doesn't really know it's "headless" - the hypervisor app is simply not rendering any console window. I'll see if I can do a test and confirm.

alright, did the test again and it works perfectly well. Thanks

Thank you for confirming!
