Hi, according to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=845964 and my own experiences, the combo of qemu, libvirt and virt-manager that is currently in Debian unstable causes guests to hang during reboot if the machine type is set to some older value like pc-0.14. pc-i440fx-2.7 works fine.
Well, I know you are looking for a workaround, but fixing the bug would be the best thing to do in the long run.
Doing the replace manually on one of my xmls showed that a simple replace is unproblematic, but is there a more "cleaner" way between editing the XML and totally recreating the machine entry with virt-manager? Working XML: <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-i440fx-2.7'>hvm</type> Non-working XML: <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-0.14'>hvm</type> Any hints will be appreciated.
I haven't found anything in virt-manager. Ths would be perfect job for virt-xml, but it looks like support for os type was not added there either (or I just missed it). It'd be nice to have that added from someone. It should be trivial, too. Ugly workaround (so you don't have to do it manually) would be: virsh dumpxml $domain | \ xmlstarlet ed -u '/domain/os/type/@machine' -v pc-i440fx-2.7 | \ virsh define /dev/stdin
