Hi all
I am trying to make an iso of my existing fresh install, so I can mess around and try things out without breaking my working machine.
I have created the ISO, but when I boot off of it using virtualbox, it just hangs on the boot menu. I have tried recreating the iso a couple of times, I use the Dist option to create, oh and the vdi file I have for the disk is a dynamically sized 50gb one, so should be plenty of space.
Log below, any help appreciated! Cheers
