      Hi there

      I am steadily migrating VMs from exsi to xcp-ng.

      I am using clonezilla destination to source and it could not be easer or quicker. So far so good.

      However, I also migrated bare metal server (ubuntu 18). Initially on reboot the vm just showed a Hard disk found message.. so i switched from bios to uefi and it booted immediately. However, the console text is unreadable.

      I have seen a few discussions around this related to the template settings. I have tested ubuntu 18 and 20 template but both have the same effect.

      I cant edit any pre-boot options as nothing can be read..

      The VM is running just fine.. but one day I am going to need to use that console. ..

      Any ideas?

        Check your kernel boot params in Grub, it's probably linked to an existing (or missing) console kernel parameter.
