Hello Andrii,

</div>
<div>Can you try setting GRUB_TERMINAL to ttyS0, update the grub config, and boot the image?</div>

<div>Currently, when I boot up an Ubuntu virtual machine, the boot process messages are not shown up in the VNC console. Everything that I see in the console is "iPXE Booting from ROM...", black screen and login entry at the end. I am using OpenStack Essex
and my VM's image was built from Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS. I tried editing the GRUB config file /etc/default/grub and updating configuraton with update-grub afterwards. Particularly, I made sure there is no "quiet" option in the Linux command line parameters,
GRUB_TERMINAL=console is uncommented, etc.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The problem is it looks like Nova does not use this GRUB config at all. Any changes applied to the GRUB config are not visible on the boot process. I studied documentation and googled a lot trying to understand how the VMs boot process works in OpenStack
but with no success.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I need your help on this issue. I would appreciate if someone shares an advice how to view the boot messages while booting up a VM or point me to the proper documentation. Let me know if you need more details on my configuration as it looks to be a rather
general issue.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you for your help.</div></div></div></div></div>
