I am new to NixOS, and I would like to learn it in and make my first config in a VM. I am running qemu for this. I do have AMD-V activated, and I am booting from UEFI instead of BIOS. Other than that I am not doing anything fancy. I am using the latest KDE Image.
The Initial installer shows up, but adter that is just a black screen.
Try the GNOME or minimal iso, the plasma one is broken for years.

## Describe the bug
ISO not loading on VM and barely loading on bare metal ma… chine.
The installation failed 7 times yesterday and at 8th time it succeed but half of the system is broken and things like mounts barely work too, crashing the system to emergency mode.
## Steps To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Download the latest ISO
2. trying to install it - it'll stuck on black screen for 5 minutes
3. Installation will crash
## Expected behavior
Clean install stable OS like the old one was version 23.11/23.05
## Screenshots
Example on VM.
stuck like this for more than 5 minutes.
## Additional context
OS unstable currently I somehow succeed to install it on my main system but I'll have to format again since nothing works.
The name of the ISO says plasma6 while the installation itself installs plasma5.

Thanks, I used the gnome ISO and chose KDE in the installer. Now I have other problems but I will make another post about that.
