[HOWTO] VirtualBox Porteus guest UEFI

Post#1 by brokenman » 13 Sep 2014, 04:34

At the time of making the video Porteus-v3.0.1 was the latest. This meant that the kernel had to be recompiled with framebuffer support. Hopefully fanthom will include this in the kernel for the next release. Please watch it in HD and fullscreen for best results. The tutorial shows how to boot from (non uefi) porteus and then format the virtual hard drive and install porteus as UEFI allowing you to remove the attached ISO and boot from the .vdi file.
