Re: [SOLVED] gparted-live-0.25.0-1-i686 cannot boot to X mode

In my testing of gparted-live-0.25.0-1-i686.iso, it booted correctly with Virtual Box 4.1.44-dfsg-1+deb7u1ubuntu1 configured for UEFI boot, and also with VMware Player 6.0.6 build-2700073 with BIOS boot.

The Debian Live image upon which GParted Live is built now supports only i686+, whereas earlier releases also supported i586.  Is your VM configured for an i586?

How to check if the VM is using i586 or i686+?

I just download VirtualBox 5.0.14 for Windows hosts  (x86/amd64) under https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads.

and my host is Windows 10 Professional (64bit)

Thanks pengsongwu for reporting back with how you solved the problem (using amd64 image) and editing the initial post to prefix SOLVED in front of the title.
