Hi Paride, thanks for your help on this (and thx to Chad). I retried with '--ram-size=4096', but it takes ages and I see several cloud-init timeouts - I still leave it running - I'm getting already much further. I started another one with 8092, let's see if this will be better ...
And yes (and sorry) it's definitely a duplicate of LP#1973628. I'm marking this LP#1987393 as duplicate and focus on LP#1973628. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Canonical's Ubuntu QA, which is subscribed to Auto Package Testing. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1987393 Title: autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud hangs on ppc64el (P9) Status in Auto Package Testing: New Status in cloud-init: New Bug description: Trying (in different ways) to create autopkgtest VM images failed. e.g. with: sudo autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud -a ppc64el -r jammy -s 15G or: sudo autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud -r jammy -v --cloud-image-url http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/daily/server -s 15G -a ppc64el or just native on ppc64el: sudo autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud -v Things look generally pretty promising, but eventually the image hangs / does not complete and the latest console messages are: ...
