[izpack-users] Error while installing my dist on Linux

[Bartz, Klaus]

Hi Vinay,
this is not a problem of IzPack else your VM runs headless.
The VM tries to connect to the graphic server of your box and this
fails. Do you have X11 installed, or do you have only a console?
IzPack does not run on a console (only as automated installation).

Cheers

Klaus
