Incus won't run most isos when trying vms

Incus

I have tried MANY linux isos and most of them simply don’t boot when I upload a custom ISO. Freebsd, etc. always seems to go into pxe boot mode. I did notice a ‘access denied’ when trying to access the uefi qemu cdrom. I am running 6.11 incus on debian.

Tried re-installing fresh, but most vms simply don’t work. Any ideas. I am using a local btrfs storage pool at this time. Containers seem to work fine.

Did you get what you needed from the Incus chat? If so, do you mind updating us with your progress?

It could help people that run across the same topic. :blush:

I did get the security.secureboot=false security.csm=true but am not sure how to format correclty for YAML input.

I figured out how to do it by coverting the suggested input to YAML format when using the webui. It boots (even though freebsd is mad about the network! ipv6 worked though)

config:
  security.csm: 'true'
  security.secureboot: 'false'
