Category: intel Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: martinmaurer (martinmaurer) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Guests do not boot (W2k/Lilo) when using "boot=on" flag Initial Comment: I am working on KVM 75 (Debian 2.6.24 amd64 Kernel, but the error is also on KVM 71, others not tested) I used the following command (here for Windows 2000): With "boot=on" option: /usr/bin/kvm -smp 1 -localtime -k de -drive file=/var/lib/vz/images/115/vm-115-disk.qcow2,if=ide,index=0,boot=on -drive file=/var/lib/vz/template/iso/EN_WINDOWS_2000_PRO_SERVER_ADVSERVER.ISO,if=ide,index=2,media=cdrom -m 512 -net tap -net nic And get this: (see also screenshot) ___________________________________________________________________________ Disk I/o error: Status = 00000001 Disk I/o error: Status = 00000001 Disk I/o error: Status = 00000001 Windows 2000 could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: <windows 2000 root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe. ___________________________________________________________________________ Without the "boot=on" option everything works: /usr/bin/kvm -smp 1 -localtime -k de -drive file=/var/lib/vz/images/115/vm-115-disk.qcow2,if=ide,index=0 -drive file=/var/lib/vz/template/iso/EN_WINDOWS_2000_PRO_SERVER_ADVSERVER.ISO,if=ide,index=2,media=cdrom -m 512 -net tap -net nic ______________ Linux with Lilo Bootloader: If you try to install a Linux with Lilo boot manager, the system does also not boot: "LILO - Keytable read/checksum error" (see screenshot) This issue is also easy reproducable, easiest way is to get a netinstall ISO for debian etch: http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/4.0_r4a/i386/iso-cd/debian-40r4a-etchnhalf-i386-netinst.iso on the last step you need to point the installer not to use grub (just go back and select LILO to install). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Jes Sorensen (jessorensen) Date: 2011-03-03 10:56 Message: Hi, This really should not be an issue anymore - could you let us know if you still see this?
