Re: Lubuntu 13.10 beta

 

Joern,

I have the installed system in the vbox now. I can retry installing
again. So please describe exactly what you want, and at what stage!

-o-

The screen with the message that installation has finished, and I should
reboot remains on the screen and the cursor is the round busy one.

So it is not a black screen, it seems not to finish but 'hangs' at that
finishing screen of the installer. And I can see from the host system,
that the vbox processes are fully busy (both processors at max for hours).

Best regards
Nio
