Description Pierre Fortin 2016-12-02 05:45:51 CET
Description of problem:
Testing mga6-rc via virtualbox 5.1.10. The install[1] is from my local repo.
Initially, sddm was crashing as per other reports. 
Now, it boots to a black screen.  If I hit ESC during startup I can see the messages until that stops and CPU goes to 100%,

[1] Install proceeds with defaults (must turn off 32-bit), ignore flash failure, provide root password, add one account, defaults to the end; reboot.  Very generic.

See screen shot of the vm, htop & gkrellm

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 Mageia 6 Devel-x86_64-Download 20161130 08:15



How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install or upgrade mga6-rc
2. reboot
3. unresponsive: boots to black screen; unless ESC to display messages

The only Mageia 6-RC that I know of, was in the QA team repository.

6 RC has been deprecated, and QA team is now starting to test 6sta2 isos instead.

But maybe I misunderstood what you were testing?

Please attach /root/drakx/report.bug.xz from that install.

Also, assuming you can switch to a VT in your VM, please run, as root:

   journalctl -ab > journal.txt

and attach journal.txt, too.
