Hey guys, I was able to boot the instance with Knopix and add the append="ide=nodma" line which got me up and running but the instance seems to lock up frequently. I'm wondering if there are some kvm tweaks I can make to stabilize the system. Here is what my qemu-kvm options look like: /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -S -M rhel5.4.0 -cpu qemu32 -m 256 -smp \ 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -name RHL6 -uuid \ 0be67ae0-2544-a356-05c0-1e3550681760 -monitor \ unix:/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/RHL6.monitor,server,nowait \ -no-kvm-pit-reinjection -no-acpi -boot c -drive \ file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/vm_lun_1 \ rhl6.img,if=ide,bus=0,unit=0,boot=on,format=raw -drive \ file=/media/redhat-.2- \ i386.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,bus=1,unit=0, \ readonly=on,format=raw -net nic,macaddr=54:52:00:48:07:00, \ vlan=0,model=ne2k_pci -net tap,fd=23,vlan=0 -serial none \ -parallel none -usb -vnc 127.0.0.1:2 -k en-us \ -vga cirrus -balloon virtio Thanks again! -Arthur -- 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
