About networking.
I download the image to my Mac but the Ubuntu Server can not accessed Internet.
The solution: Eth1 is the virtual net card that is working, so:
- Edit /etc/network/interfaces and replace “eth0″ to “eth1″
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
- restart the network
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
@ccastillop
This is an old question of “udev”: you can edit the file
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rulesremove the lines of old network-card, and change to “eth0″ in the appropriate MAC address, then reboot.
Thanks for your tip,
Antonio

…

ubuntu@ubuntu-server :~$
my question: what i can do next?where there is only terminal is displayed? can any one help me.
@eman
Hi,
I think that you don’t have PAE enabled on your VM.
Look here for discussions about lacking security:

Good luck and enjoy

I had trouble getting the keyboard to work with my MacBook Air. Apparently the keyboard was set to the wrong layout.
Hope this helps someone!
It’s set to it(Italian?) and that destroys the keyboard for the us layout. You have to change the layout in /etc/default/keyboard to what ever you need. then do what @emptystacks says. If like me you use the the us layout and use Vim that is total borked and once you edit you can’t ESC to tell it to save. Use pico/nano to change it.

The /etc/resolv.conf file on the 11.10 image contains the following two lines before the usual nameserver command:
domain adserv.it
search adserv.it
Why is this?
@Rod
Please remove the two lines or substitute it with your domain name, The presence of this lines is only a shortcut for internal domain resolution and are writed by dhcp configuration.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks for reporting,
Antonio
