fsmithredrrq, this worked (i.e. the .img file boots in qemu and the installer starts.)03:43
fsmithredmount devuan_daedalus_5.0.0_amd64_activated_netinstall.iso mnt/03:43
fsmithreddd if=/dev/loop0 of=daedalus-netinstall.img03:44
fsmithredI didn't bother trying to figure out how to start qemu with a second drive as the install target.03:44
fsmithredand I'm going to sleep soon.03:45
fsmithredboot *uefi* in qemu03:45
fsmithredboots03:45
fsmithredHTH03:45
rrqinteresting. I guess virtualbox does some funny logic on the filename then03:58
rrqi.e. it should have been enoug to rename the .iso into the .img03:58
rrqplus ensure rw access03:59
rrqyou could check by a) adding "emerg" to the boot line, which stops the installer at the preboot stage, and then reviewed /dev/* to see the .img appearing as /dev/sdb[12]04:01
rrq... and then b) reviewing ..04:02
rrqwait.. you say qemu?04:03
rrqsorry now I woke up... yes, when the iso is attached as disk image, then it works04:06
rrqeg: qemu-system-x86_64 -hda trial.raw -hdb devuan_daedalus_5.0.0_amd64_netinstall.iso -bios /usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd04:09
rrq(hmm almost?)04:10
fsmithredmaybe more interesting than my command is this output in the terminal04:11

rrqpx should be pc04:15
rrqI was wondering wether the similar setup boots on virtualbox.. i.e. with the iso as hdb04:17
rrqmaybe the vm.sh script from installer-iso would be useful for exploring live-installer on various emulation setups?04:18
rrqit has many options (and I should add the virtio-pci option)04:19
fsmithred_I made a .vdi from the ,img. Here's the error message from vbox -04:32
fsmithred_for writing due to wrong permissions (VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY).04:32
fsmithred_AHCI: Failed to attach drive to Port0 (VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY).04:32
fsmithred_oops04:32
fsmithred_forgot the first words:  Failed to open file...04:32
fsmithred_time for sleep. bye.04:34
