</div></div>In the last couple of days, I did a quick try:<br>
<br>
<br>
what worked :<br>
<br>
- I'm able to create a new 'box' and boot an F17 live iso image<br>
- Was able to delete the just created 'box'<br>
<br>
<br>
What's not working for me:<br>
<br>
- Attempt to install the live-os to hard-disk fails w/ memory constraint (it sees only 500<br>
MB of it, while we need more than 720 MB. But I wasn't able to specify the memory anywhere<br>
though) .<br>
- side note: I have plenty of memory on the host.<br>
<br>
- UI is often unresponsive and wouldn't let me do anything. I try to go back, and go to<br>
the centralized view, it hangs and segfaulted once for me:<br>
<br>
------<br>
[ 3085.175514] gnome-boxes[4367]: segfault at 18 ip 000000365ac11d2b sp 00007ffffa175bf0<br>
error 4 in libvirt-gobject-1.0.so.0.0.7[365ac00000+1a000]<br>
------<br>
<br>
<br>
Once I get more time, will have to debug a little more & file a bug.<br>
