8.2 beta VMs are not running properly
-
Hi!
Long story short I have two machines, one I can spare for testing.
It's a Haswell Celeron with 8Gb, a retired desktop pc with integrated graphicsAnyway I managed to upgrade to 8.2 beta via ISO, it's on UEFI.
I have some virtual machines which use UEFI experimental feature. Is that feature not implemented as per blogpost? The VMs are stuck and in xen orchestra console shows a blinking cursor and they don't respond to networking or any interaction whatsoever? Is this how it's supposed to be ATM? I am not sure what to test for as I am still very much a beginner in XEN. Thank you!

Yes, this is expected. Ping @beshleman

Thanks for the quick answer, I'll be able to sleep easier.

Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't wait to test it! You wouldn't believe it but I always wait the end of month dev blog. I use this project everyday for my design vms and whatnot. Just thank you.
