Hi all! I'm trying to make a migration of a Xen PV virtual machine to KVM. For this I'm starting a VM with SystemRescueCD [1] of the following way: # /usr/local/kvm/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /dev/vm/hermes-disk -boot d \ -cdrom /space/isos/systemrescuecd-x86-1.3.2.iso -m 512 -daemonize -vnc \ :2 -k es -localtime -hdb hermes-raiz.raw -hdc hermes-var.raw -net \ nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:16:3e:00:00:34 -net tap Where hermes-disk is the disk that will use the VM in the destination host, and hermes-raiz.raw and hermes-var.raw are the raw partitions that was using the Xen PV virtual machine in source host. My idea is to create the partitions in hermes-disk, to mount the raw partitions and to do "cp -a" to the partitions created in hermes-disk, but after boot only hermes-disk and hermes-raiz.raw are exported (like sda and sdb). Which can be the problem? Using VIRTIO for the raw partitions I didn't have this problem. Something similar happened to me with a ISO of Debian netinstall. It doesn't boot passing three disks with -hdX. But making the installation with netinstall and two disks and after it have finished and have booted and added a third disk, the system boots without problems. Will it be by the same cause? Thanks in advance for your reply.
