Correction I can install Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx 32bit Desktop edition on MS 
Virtual PC 2007.
To do so, I boot the installer with:
vga=791 noreplace-paravirt

After the reboot I interrupt the boot process and again add the kernel params 
in grub.
After that it did boot up.

However: the Server Edition CD (I'm testing the 32bit) simply won't boot in MS 
Virtual PC 2007.
I've tried Modes: "Normal", "minimal system", "minimal virtual machine".
I've tried adding the abaove mentioned kernel params, but they simply don't 
work.
In fact when adding vga=788 or vga=791 or some others, it garbles the screen.
When I do vga=0xf01 (80x50 VGA mode) I can see the boot progress before it 
dies, the last 2 lines are:

ftrace: converting mcount calls to 0f 1f 44 00 00
ftrace: allocating 21771 entries in 43 pages

Does the server kernel ignore these params like "noreplace-paravirt" or treat 
them differently?
Are there any other options I can try?
