Hi Inverge:
I have the same problem.
Have had it for a while.
If your problem is the same as mine, I'll define it for you.
You are on your machine, running KVM, which you're using to
create a VM.
At some time, the other KVM -- Keyboard, Video, Mouse -- has to
switch from 'your machine/KVM-QEMU to your 'VM' so you can answer
the set-up questions as when you set up any machine. Since the
switch was never made, and you never interacted with the build,
the VM is built with no software, it's got everything else: your
processors of choice, memory, etc..
I run KVM (create) time and time again, using every sourcing I
can (i.e, sometimes loading the .iso, sometimes trying to use the
DVD, etc. etc.), and one time in a 100, it makes the switch. It's
now been years since I've been able to make a new VM.
I gave up, after doing all suggested to no avail.
Every now again, the CentOS update lists losts of KVM/QEMU
updates, so I try it again, hoping the problems has been found by
my betters and fixed. Still to no avail.
If my described problem is the same as yours, I wish you the
best.
Maybe you'll be able to give the Powers That Be the information
they need to fix this -- I evidently was not.
Enjoy,
-doug

Hello, I'm running kvm/qemu with virt-manager on Ubuntu 14.04.
My VM's boot fine when I first create them, but if I go back
at a later time to boot them I always get "No bootable OS
found". I think this may have something to do with virt-manager
expecting a raw format while the disks are saved as .qcow,
because I saw people experiencing this issue on a Ubuntu forum
post from at least 2 years ago. Is this a known issue with the
binaries distributed by Ubuntu? And if so is there a tweak I can
make to stop encountering this? If I install from source could
that help me?
If you need me to provide additional information I'd be happy
too, thanks in advance.
Regards, Jay Hopkins.
