      Hello Rick!              12 Jan 18, Rick Christian wrote to All:               RC> 3.02, in VM, and Live DVD. No boot. Just goes to a black screen.              Tried EFI boot option?

If not found the init process may stuck.              Another impact of slow system response could be the setup of the VM disk       controller. If it doesn't use host i/o cache the vm is incredible slow with       disk i/o. You could try a different controller too, ide vs scsi.               RC> I am testing this out on a brand new, Dell Quad Core AMD box, with        RC> 8GB RAM, it runs Kubuntu 16.04 normally.
