Hi all,
I am starting up to use libvirt with virsh and virt-install. I used
virt-install successfully and have a running linux system with raw disk
exported to the virtual machine as scsi. (the whole of qemu + libvirt +
virtmanager is compiled and installed on /usr/local from source)
After the virtual OS installation (which succeeds) I am not able to boot
into the OS from the harddisk. Following are some excerpts from my xml
file. Please get back to me if you need any more information
<os>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-0.14'>hvm</type>
<boot dev='hd'/>
<bootmenu enable='yes'/>
</os>
I also tried removing the boot parametes from <os> and added
<boot order='1'/> in the scsi disk section. Still I am not able to use the
scsi disk to boot (my qemu-system-x86_64 however has the boot=on option)
<disk type='block' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source dev='/dev/venkatb1/deb'/>
<target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
I could not find any more information or any posts where someone else had
faced this issue. I presume I am doing something wrong here.
Can someone help please ?
thanks
