Hi Erich,

I am continuing to test the beta version, so that I can better understand
the problem and ask for help.  I did re-install one of the jammy jellyfish
builds (from about 2-3 weeks ago) and I could install it  with EFI.  I also
tried to install the beta version on VirtualBox on a different computer; it
did not work, and acted exactly the same as on my primary computer.  I also
realized that, in the bug report, I did NOT state that I enabled the
virtual machines to be in EFI mode by (1) checking the "enable EFI (special
OSes only) box on the System>Motherboard tab in VirtualBox, or by including
"firmware = "efi" " in the .vmx file for the VMWare player.  Enabling EFI
seems to be the critical step.  So, I have to ask, did you do this also?
If not, would you please try the install again?  I am very concerned since
all of my computers are EFI, and I do not want to have the install crash
when I try for real

Thanks a lot.  I know you are busy with the upgrade.  I truly appreciate
all you and the team do with Ubuntu Studio, since it has been my primary OS
since about Ubuntu Studio 14.04.
Norman

Title:
  Ubuntu Studio will not install on VM with UEFI

Status in Ubuntu Studio:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I tried to install Ubuntu Studio 22.04 Beta on both VirtualBox and
  VMware set for UEFI with GPT partitioning.  I used the same settings
  that I have previously used to install Ubuntu Studio on both virtual
  machines and computers.  I was also successful installing previous
  versions of Ubuntu Studio 22.04 (alpha versions) with the settings.
  When I try the install, I can click "Install Ubuntu Studio"; the
  screen then changes to a blank screen.

  My UEFI settings are: 512 Mb FAT32 boot, ~15 Gb root, ~25 Gb home.
