it appears a runit boot does not start the display manager (lightdm) for a "standard" installation.
It does for me with the 2022-12-26 ISO. I wish it didn't though
]]>Perhaps that was your case?
I had to shift to vt2, login as root and run
/etc/init.d/lightdm start
by hand (to get a standard login happening in vt7).
]]>A virtualbox VM is basically the same as a qemu VM insofar as Devuan installation is concerned. The range of h/w emulation choices might differ but that would only be an issue if you'd play fancy with that.
]]>Not yet ready for full on customisation, so I need it to be close to how I want my desktop to look.
also have used virtualbox before where the company I was working for at that time wanted a bunch of VM's to do some stuff while using windows boxes. Their company, their rules...
]]>No idea about Virtualbox but I would suggest that daedalus not working in that is a feature rather than a bug. You should thank the developers for steering you away from the worst virtualisation "solution" around.
]]>in a Virtualbox VM, most of my other installs go smoothly, but this one has got stuck at the end of the install process.
I chose runit as the init system to try that out, but it might not be the cause of the problem.
It stops at the command line after the install is complete and it has kicked off the iso.
If I log in as me, the password is accepted, but startx does not do anything.
There are also mentions of apparmor during the boot process.
