Try the mini.iso. At the boot menu, select Advanced options, then Expert Install. You can choose to install daedalus, excalibur or ceres right after the mirror selection. This one boots uefi mode in qemu for me.

Works fine, I'll use it while the main image is being fixed.
Thanks!

I tried using LXD, and the machine doesn't freeze. However, I encountered the following message when the installer starts:
=== Devuan boot preamble ===
...
mount: mounting LABEL=DEVUAN500 on /cdrom failed: No such file or directory
mount: mounting UUID= on /cdrom failed: No such file or directory
...
*** failed to mount the cdrom
*** Starting emergency shell ...With libvirt, same as I described previously, the machine gets paused automatically at the start.
On the other hand, I got an old ISO of Devuan 5.0, devuan_daedalus_5.0.preview-20230601_amd64_netinstall.iso, and it works perfectly in both hypervisors!

Afaik, the virtual machine emulation of UEFI can't handle cdrom, so try by having the ISO as a second disk rather, or emulated USB memory stick.
I think the backing file ISO also needs to be writable for that UEFI emulation.
It's a bit unusual; why am I encountering this problem with the stable release and not with RC5?
On the other hand, I've tested other distros like Arch or Debian, and they work perfectly fine.

I'm unable to perform any actions; the machine freezes and requires me to forcefully terminate it.
The last time I attempted an installation was using RC5, and I encountered no problems.
Thanks for yours replies!

Hello,
I'm experiencing a similar issue. I'm trying to install the new release on a virtual machine with UEFI, and the hypervisor is displaying the error message "KVM internal error. Suberror: 1." As @tauro mentioned, the live images are working well.
