On Xubuntu noble-daily (20240315) the welcome dialog doesn't load

[Leonardo Müller]

When testing "Install (no Network) in Xubuntu Desktop amd64 in Noble Daily" on a QEMU virtual machine, it was noticed the welcome dialog never started. I expected it would load as "maybe-ubiquity" was present in /proc/cmdline.

The VM was started with:

qemu-system-x86_64 -accel kvm -net none -hda xub2404Daily.img -cdrom noble-desktop-amd64.iso -cpu host -smp cores=4,threads=2 -m 4G -device qxl-vga,xres=1280,yres=720 -boot menu=on

I'm not sure where the correct fix for this is, bootstrap maybe?

Sounds like bug 2056160?

It doesn't look like the same, as on bug 2056160 it's stated there is a blank window. However, on my testing, there was no window at all until I manually opened it.

I have uploaded a video showing the attempted install, that failed with what seems to be bug 2057989 again (can't find grub-pc).
