I have a Fedora21 image from my old F35 system that I rsnyced to my F38 system:

# ls -ls /var/lib/libvirt/images/
total 18397576
18397576 -rw-r--r--. 1 qemu qemu 18839109632 Apr 30 21:15 fedora21.qcow2

I then went through the process
     Create New Virtual Machine
         Import existing Disk Image

Fedora 21 is not a listed OS.  I tried Generic or Unknown OS.

The image started, but nothing happening in the view.  It did the select kernel ver and I just let it take the 1st as I do on F35.

It just sits there.

What is the magic selection to get an old F21 image running?  Only a couple things I use this for, but would be a real pain to migrate. Running the image is easier...

Thanks

If I understand you correctly, you have a running F35 system that is able to run your F21 image? And you installed a new system using F38 and are to migrate / transfer your F21 image to the new system?

Correct.

Do you use Fedora Workstation of Fedora Server (or yet another spin)? And did you try to ex- and import the virtual machine definition?

I used the Fedora everything netinstall and selected the Xfce desktop for my F38 install.

Where are the vm definitions on F35 and where do I put then on F38?

thanks
