Taking screenshots during installation of Ubuntu

By Daniel Rodriguez

I am going to install Ubuntu Server. On numerous websites, I have observed screenshots of the install process. If I would like to take a screenshot of the install process, how can I do it?

The easiest way would be to do the install within a virtualbox guest installation.

You could snapshot the virtualbox guest window using either standard gnome-screenshot or better still, with Shutter.

you can try installing an screen capture app for console before beginning the install process like the gnome-screenshot tool. I don't recommend installing this because you will need some gnome dependencies i think but you can search for another app and install it from ubuntu-server media. You can install it using another tty and taking screenshots to check if it works before the installation process begins
