Installing ArcaOS on QEmu
« on: September 09, 2022, 10:17:40 am »
Hi.

I replaced OS2LVM on the ISO image, but the installation hangs after the boot menu.
Was somebody successful with installing ArcaOS on QEmu and has some tipps?

Try 2.4.x or 2.5.0... 2.5.91 is already broken...

Who knows what they "optimized" to achieve this result, but qemu has a lot more bugs than VBox (which is famous for them ;))

ArcaOS 5.1 runs fine on qemu 9.2 (tested on debian 12 x86_64):

qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=arca51.img,format=raw -cdrom arca51.iso -m 4G

qemu 9.2 works as of 12/2024.

Good luck!

Good that it is working. Be interesting for Sigurd to test it on his ARM system.
