I was doing bare metal on an HP Z840. Does anyone know of any documentation on the VBox boot process? It's obviously not running the BIOS initial loader to read the first sector on the disk.

It installed fine. True, gparted did not work, but the graphical installer selected the entire available partition, though it only used 7.3Gb. Rebooted fine (apparently the boot loader was installed), except system/xvm/ipagent:default failed repeatedly and was transitioned to maintenance; but the gui interface loaded and I logged in. I believe I had that same error when I installed that 2021.04.05 test release; in that former case, pkg update cleared up that problem and perhaps it will this time also. I did not find these matters to be "major" problems; the newly installed system is running. e. _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
