KVM: 'ÿ' character after starting a VM via virt-install

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm unable to start a virtual machine with KVM.

I'm using Centos 5.4

I have installed all necessary rpms (to my knowledge), but as you can see from the output (below), the system does not boot the CD-ROM. It just sits there doing nothing:

# virt-install --prompt
Would you like to use KVM acceleration? (yes or no) yes
What is the name of your virtual machine? test

How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 1024
What would you like to use as the disk (file path)? /var/lib/libvirt/images/test.img
How large would you like the disk (/var/lib/libvirt/images/test.img) to be (in gigabytes)? 20

What is the install CD-ROM/ISO or URL? /root/CentOS-5.4-i386-bin-1of6.iso


Starting install...
Creating storage file... | 20 GB 00:00
Creating domain... | 0 B 00:00

Connected to domain test
Escape character is ^]
ÿ

the 'ÿ' character appears after a few seconds, then nothing...

Any help is appreciated!
