Description

When booting JNode in vmware 4, 5 and 5.5, both windows and linux, it just hangs under the startup sequence. Not sure if it's the same runing directly on hardware.

More data will come.

Bootup with different amount of RAM

Submitted by cheek on Fri, 03/24/2006 - 14:00.

I tried some different configurations with VMWare 5.5.1

256MB - only 20-30% of boot tries work (first after starting vmware never)

512MB - Its sth about an 50/50 chance to work. the first boot after starting will always fail) you will need at least 2-3 starts to get JNode running

1024MB - works quite well, only 1 out of 10 tries fails. It is my first config where JNode boots up after starting VMWare

I use the x86-lite iso,P4 3Ghz (1 CPU for JNode), and 2GB Ram total

I close this issue since JNode boots fine on vmare expect some occasional hangups.
