I stumbled over the solution to my final problem by accident. When
booting off the install cd, you have 15 seconds to "hit any key", or
else it'll try to boot off the "hard drive". Given that I haven't
installed yet, it'll try to boot off the blank pseudo "hard drive", and
fail. Pressing any key will stop the timer. I prefer to type in...
Just as on a real PC you can issue Ctrl+Alt+Del to have it reboot again
(without respawning qemu). Look for the three-finger-salute icon on the
toolbar.
Which toolbar?
* One more minor annoyance and workaround... the initial vncviewer
screen is a 720x400 xterm. The install thinks it's in a 1024x768
framebuffer, so you get the bottom and right edges of the output
clipped. As soon the penguin logo appears, you can close the xterm
containing the vncviewer output, and open another vncviewer with the
same command as the original. This new copy senses the correct
"screensize" and you can go on with your install.
That's odd. The VNC client should dynamically change the size of its
window as appropriate.
Not all VNC-clients do this.
Which do you use?
TightVNC but on Windows. I haven't used the Linux version in some time
and incorrectly assumed feature parity. Sorry about that. Regarding the
absence of a toolbar, pressing F8 should expose a menu with a
Ctrl-Alt-Del option.
