Installing & Running IPFire

Default menu option does nothing: when countdown arrives to 0, it restart from 60 secons again. And pressing Retun doesn’t do anything, neither. I can’t pass from this screen.

Hi Oscar, welcome to the IPFire Community.

I’ve just tried booting CU 201 in VirtualBox 7.2.8 and it goes smoothly for me.

Would you mind sharing the config of your vm and explain in some more detail what you are doing?

BR,
Rico

Thanks Rico!

I think I’ve found the issue. If VM’s RAM is below 256MB, it happens what I’ve said.

Interestingly, if VM’s RAM is between 256MB and 1024MB aprox. it boots but it gives diferent init errors (showing “init file not found” error message when RAM is low or entering in a debug shell when RAM is a bit bigger). If VM’s RAM has 1024MB or more, IPFire boots correctly.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Oscar, sorry for the delayed reply.

Happy to hear you fixed your issue! I’ll mark this as solved then (:
