We've recently upgrade to Xen Hypervisor 8.2 and are able to successfully deploy several Ubuntu VM guests from 14, 16 to 18 via PXE boot. However we're now trying to install Ubuntu 20.04.01 (Focal Fossa) and are running in to an issue with it locking. It picks up the initrd.gz and vmlinuz. It begins the network boot process and locks up at the point where it loads QEMU USB Tablet. I'm aware that Ubuntu has tried to move away from it's legacy Debian based but has since decided to re-introduce the legacy install disk. http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-legacy-server/releases/20.04/release/
I've tried using several different kernel parameters in the preseed file including "usbcore.nousb" and bumping up the debug but it just seems to hang. Has anyone else seen anything like this?
