I use recent libvirt/qemu/kvm regularly and haven't seen anything like this for a long long time. Thanks, Jes ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Roman Yepishev (rtg20) Date: 2008-09-04 21:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1445483 Originator: YES Ok, please resolve this ticket. The latest libvirt (0.4.4) supplies valid -drive file=/home/rtg/vm/RHEL/RHEL.img,if=ide,index=0,boot=on -drive file=/home/rtg/Downloads/Linux/rhel-5.2-server-i386-dvd.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=2. So this is now out of the scope of this ticket. Thanks! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Laurent Vivier (lvivier) Date: 2008-09-04 19:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=400005 Originator: NO There is no way to create machine without CD-ROM, SD card or floppy. BTW, this not a KVM issue but a Qemu one.

The commandline is constructed by libvirt's libvirtd and it seems to ignore <target dev='hdc' /> node. If it is possible to attach the cdrom to any interface then there is no need to patch the behaviour w/o index, livbirtd needs one :) However this raises the question: how to create a virtual machine without any physical cdrom device,SD card and floppy as they are all created automatically even if no devices were requested? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Laurent Vivier (lvivier) Date: 2008-09-04 16:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=400005 Originator: NO By default, "-drive" take the first empty connector available. In your case, the first empty connector is ide0/slave, so your "-drive file=...,media=cdrom" is connected to ide0/slave. But by default, qemu also creates an empty ATAPI cdrom at ide1/master, it's why you have two CD-ROMs. two solutions: - specify an index, as the "-cdrom" does: "-drive file=...,media=cdrom,index=2" OR - modify the default behavior of "-driver file=...,media=cdrom" when no index is provided (I can provide a patch) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Roman Yepishev (rtg20) Date: 2008-09-03 23:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1445483 Originator: YES -drive file=/home/rtg/vm/RHEL/RHEL.img,if=ide,boot=on -drive file=/home/rtg/Downloads/Linux/rhel-5.2-server-i386-dvd.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom: (qemu) info block ide0-hd0: type=hd removable=0 file=/home/rtg/vm/RHEL/RHEL.img ro=0 drv=raw ide0-cd1: type=cdrom removable=1 locked=0 file=/home/rtg/Downloads/Linux/rhel-5.2-server-i386-dvd.iso ro=0 drv=raw ide1-cd0: type=cdrom removable=1 locked=0 [not inserted] floppy0: type=floppy removable=1 locked=0 [not inserted] sd0: type=floppy removable=1 locked=0 [not inserted] -hda /home/rtg/vm/RHEL/RHEL.img -cdrom /home/rtg/Downloads/Linux/rhel-5.2-server-i386-dvd.iso: (qemu) info block ide0-hd0: type=hd removable=0 file=/home/rtg/vm/RHEL/RHEL.img ro=0 drv=raw ide1-cd0: type=cdrom removable=1 locked=0 file=/home/rtg/Downloads/Linux/rhel-5.2-server-i386-dvd.iso ro=0 drv=raw floppy0: type=floppy removable=1 locked=0 [not inserted] sd0: type=floppy removable=1 locked=0 [not inserted] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=2091534&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
