Alternative, looks like you can specify "-m 2G,maxmem=16G,slots=1", to create proper ACPI tables that indicate hotpluggable memory. (I'll have to look into QEMU to figure out to always indicate hotpluggable memory that way). -- Thanks, David / dhildenb _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
