I managed to get SSH running by starting in "3" and then switching to
"5". The process doing all the nothing is the loop device. The host
system is reporting very small I/O through iotop. Roughly 200kbyte/sec
reads of the ISO file every couple of seconds. I have tried switching
the CD device from IDE to SATA to no avail.
The problem is RAM.
I allocated 1 GB of RAM as my usual amount for any new VM. This works
until X is started then it is bumping the 1GB limit. Any new app that
is started is being OOM killed. Just sitting at a Gnome desktop
consumes 950MB. I'm not happy about this increase in usage, but I'll
save the complaining for another thread.
After bumping the RAM to 2GB I can get things rolling. The VM is still
very slow, but the UI responds within about a minute after clicking on
widgets. Anaconda is using about 500MB by itself, so 2GB may not be
enough if this trend continues.
I installed the latest RC with 4 GB of assigned RAM from VirtualBox.
4 GB apparently does the trick as the install proceeded at a good pace.
