thierry.vignaud There's issue with fb under Vbox either b/c of latest kernels or b/c of latest vbox... I had this issue already 1 month ago though. It's probably still an issue with recent kernels and/or vbox, but maybe not a recent regression. Well, I have done some cross-testing.... On x86_64 host (both mga5 and cauldron) it only happends when booting 32bit cauldron install on 64bit host. booting mga5 i586 install (xorg 1.16.4) under 64bit vbox does not show this issue. And using mga5 boot.iso to and pointing to cauldron i586 stage2 gets the same issue. so I'd say kernel is ruled out, and the issue is 32bit xorg-1.18 vs vbox interaction that gets us. Has anyone tested 32bit install on real hw? Do the patches you backported improved this situation? You can also compare under virt-manager

marja11 Tested on M6 Cauldron,fully updated, VB 5.1.4 as host, on real hardware. Installing guest with: Mageia-Cauldron-netinstall-i586.iso (latest available on mirror: 22-8-16) Stage2 works fine, no delay, no slowness, graphics ok. I cancelled the install after setting keyboard etc because the image is outdated and would error out while trying to install. I'd say if this bug is only about stage2: this is solved. CC:

shybluenight Not a problem on a M5 host either. VB 5.1.2 on the host. Closing as fixed as per comment 13 and comment 14. Please reopen if you still experience this bug. Keywords:

Created attachment 7338 [details] Stage 2 error / Xorg Using last test iso of Mageia 6 in vbox, stage2 is very slow to start as it seems default graphic driver does not work. It then switches to another one. Graphic detection seems broken, as it was not able at all to configure it. Don't know if it's linked but I was not able to install any of the DE proposed in installer. Attached screenshots and logs
