Public bug reported:
Hi
NB: This might be a bug with the Ubuntu ISOs rather than kvm.
When installing Ubuntu in kvm, in my case using the jaunty lpia
alternate install CD (.iso), I see various VGA chars using the wrong
glyphs.
I think this is due to the default font used in the kvm VGA adapter, but
it might be a font loaded by the installer, not sure.
This is problematic for two things:
- the dialogs look ugly
- when prompted to detect keyboard layout, you can chose to type keys appearing
on they keyboard, except that d-i tells me to type keys with unreadable glyphs,
and hence I can't hit the correct key....
will attach screenshot.
I'm running kvm with:
qemu-img create -f raw hda.img 8G
kvm -hda hda.img -cdrom *iso -boot d -m 512
Bye
