I use Qemu and Virtual Machine Manager to run Windows 10 from my Ubuntu. I can share data between the two systems by redirecting a USB stick. Is there an easy way to share a small amount of data without a USB stick?

With one of the last Ubuntu updates I can't login on console anymore, because I'm getting no login prompt.

I'm running Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS on a Synology Virtual Machine and try to connect to the console via the web interface. I only see some kernel messages.

I tried to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 / Ctrl+F1, but no success. I guess the web interface doesn't send these special key combination correctly.

Any ideas?

I am running the ARM64 build of Ubuntu 20.04 under QEMU. ~50% of the time the boot process reports this:

[ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device /dev/ttyAMA0.
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Serial Getty on ttyAMA0.

which means there is no login prompt in the QEMU terminal. SSH access is then required to start the daemon manually:

$ sudo systemctl start serial-getty@ttyAMA0.service

How can I fix this? And w ...

This is the issue: I created a floppy image which I want to add to an existing virtual machine. I added the disk from the virtual machine manager but when I boot the vm I get this error:

Our open source project has been using Github Actions to run an Image builder. We are using Ubuntu latest and we have two deps that get updated which are qemu and qemu-user-static.
