Hey folks - just thought I'd note this. The openQA run for Final TC1 Workstation live failed; after 'clicking' the 'Install' button on the welcome screen it waited 30 seconds for anaconda to install then timed out and failed.
I tried locally and it took right around 30 secs for anaconda to run in a 2-CPU VM here too, but it *did* run. So I think nothing was broken, it just would have taken longer than openQA waited to launch.
I think this is probably related to that bug about multi-CPU VMs running slowly - does anyone recall the bug number? When I tried a single-CPU VM instead, anaconda only took 14 seconds to launch.

For the time being, it seems that there's no benefit in giving the VMs more than one CPU?

Yeah, I think it'd make sense to change the config to one CPU. That's what I use on openqa.happyassassin.net, FWIW.

In case you or Jan made some changes, a (supposedly) fixed kernel has just been pushed stable. So multicore systems should be fine once again.
