arya on VM always boots into the iso first...


been test driving arya for a couple of days.
FYI i use multiple windowmanagers for y host system.

everytime i fire up aQemu to start arya, it boots into the iso from which i installed. i simply reboot and without any further work, it boots into Saavan thats on the virtual hdd. [when i detach the iso, it returns with msg boot medium not found]

i didnt take it seriously thinking it must be that every windowmanager issue... but now i feel, is it a bug or is it just me getting such errors....

furthermore, i notice that the mouse freezes and so does the keyboard. no other option but to cold shutdown...

ive alloted 1.5GB to arya... hope that is ok ?

last but not least, fusilli seems to crash even after i set it on auto start.... [may be fusilli on vm crashes due to lack of resources?]

Change the boot order for any and try again. 1.5gb RAM should be fine. I've run arya on 1 GB RAM and it ran fine. Was on virtualbox though. I've not used qemu but there must be some way to specify the boot order. That should help.

in vbox, i am unable to get a resolution beyond 640x480
in aqemu, 1280x720 resolution is good and thats what is needed on the VM. now i dont know how to do it in aqemu as its my first hand use of aqemu front end gui.

finally when i delete the file [detach it from aqemu], t fails to boot with "no boot medium found" msg... so for arya to boot off aqemu, i have to boot twice !

another question... is there an alternative browser ? epiphany failed to install. firefox freezes and i need to test with alternative. perhaps palemoon OR lightfirefox OR midori may be an option in the scripts ?

i was able to boot into saavan direct. i needed to configure aqemu to boot from hdd first !

but the freeze is a problem. i cant use arya for more than 5 minutes [approx]. and if i open firefox, it freezes the moment it starts to search ! i even cleaned up and went for fresh reinstall of arya from the installer [now its almost 15 times i tried to install xfce but it freezes midway rendering nothing but a cold shutdown ...

today i allocated 2 cpu to qemu-kvm, lets see what happens !
