Category: qemu Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Donald Dupuis (dondster) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: qemu-kvm-0.11.0 will not boot gpxe e1000 Initial Comment: Using qemu-kvm-0.11.0 and gpxe 0.9.6 or 0.9.7 will not load the e1000 pxe driver. Virtio and rtl8139 load and run just fine. There is no pxe info on the screen and reports no bootable devices. Simplified command line is qemu-kvm -net nic,model=e1000 -boot n. Anyone elese having this issue? I need gigabit performance on an older RHELU4 distro and virtio isn't an option for pxe loading of this release. Thanks Don ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Donald Dupuis (dondster) Date: 2009-10-12 09:14 Message: I have solved this issue for myself. I got the latest code from the git repository and compiled my own driver from source. I had to disable ISCSI and AOE support in src/config/general.h and this took the rom size down to about 60K. It now loads just fine and I can pxe boot a RHEL4U6 distro and also local boot from pxe. Hope this helps others ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=2874699&group_id=180599 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
