EXOS on GNS3 not booting past BusyBox

[wkb289]

Trying to boot EXOS v32.6.3.126 on GNS3 v2.2.50 running as a VM on Hyper-V and cannot get past BusyBox. I don't see anything on the tutorial site about this. The only warning I see during boot is about the CPU:

Warning. Could not determine the CPU Family.
model name      : QEMU Virtual CPU version 2.5+

Attached is the full boot screen via telnet (it's a text doc; rename and take off the csv extension).

I've tried building the template using both what's built-in to GNS3 and downloading from the Github tutorial page. Files: exos.gns3a/exosvm.gns3a, EXOS-VM_v32.6.3.126.qcow2

Qemu is set to /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64.

The VM has ExposeVirtualizationExtensions set to true in Hyper-V.

Hmm,

I'm not sure what your issue is exactly, I'm not having this problem with VMWare 32.6 so it could be hyper-V specific?

Regardless, the 'press c to continue' prompt is similar to a prompt that you see during a rescue image installation:

This makes me think that some input is being provided to the switch during bootup getting it into a pre-boot menu.
Or potentially the pre-boot environment is having some error leading to the prompt?

I was just trying different commands in BusyBox and typed exit then it booted........ How can it be configured to boot without having to do that? You first have to press c to continue then exit.

c) continue with boot process
