I have an .iso I am trying to install. I have the cdrom.iso in the folder with virtioa.qcow. The VM boots, and .iso loads and starts to give messages. Then the screen blanks - I think while its waiting for me to choose something? But it never comes back? Can you tell me if there is a terminal setting that might help with this? Is there a way to view what was in the console window before it blanks out?
Here are the options -
-machine pc,accel=kvm -cpu host -vga virtio
and the console is set to vnc.
Thank you

Great - thank you. I think 'std' may have worked.
