Thanks for your help, last night i was able to install and start clear linux with Gnome, it was a bit tricky, and (as you said it’s being revised) the instructions are lack of some information.Īfter all, i used the installer img (from this guide: ), but the live desktop would never start. I know this is not the most elegant instruction but it should get you going… Once the installation is done, return to the VirtualBox instructions where you unmount the installer ISO here.
The VM should be configured for the network.Īt this point you should be able to follow the instructions for installing from the installer using the instructions in this document.
It may take a minute or two to boot (we are looking into a boot issue with the VM) and then you should see the live desktop running the gnome desktop with the Clear Linux Installer (the Clear Linux logo) in the application tray on the left hand side. Attach the ISO to the VM as documented and then start the VM. I also recommend setting the disk size to 32GB. īe sure to check the enable EFI option on the system tab for your new VM. Download the live-desktop-iso image from and then decompress the image with unxz and then follow the instructions to create a new VM from the document.
Hi Bex1990, the instructions for using VirtualBox are currently being revised so maybe this will help. I’m pretty sure that I did all the steps of the tutorials to install the distro, but without success. Also with autostart it should be launched automatically?Īlso tried to install the distro from the installer, but instead of finding the gnome desktop with the installer I’m getting the terminal. I tried to launch startx which launches the gnome desktop, but it launches an older version, that’s not fully functional. Instead of I’m getting only the terminal. (but i don’t think it’s relevant to the virtual machine, maybe I’m wrong here?).Īfter setting up the root account and chaning the kernel to lts, and installing the guest additions everything goes fine, than i tried to install the desktop-autostart bundle, and was expecting to have the gnome interface after reboot.
I tried to follow your guides, installing from live img or launch a live img, but i’m having problems with the Gnome desktop.Īctually my host OS is Ubuntu 16.04, and running the latest version of VirtualBox (6.0.8), also launched your check script if i could install clear linux, and everything goes fine, except the EFI firmware, what’s missing. I’m pretty new to Clear Linux, but really interested in this project, but having issues installing the OS in virtualbox (just to try it out).
