Hi all I did a fresh installation of debian wheezy After installing, I have installed virt-manager which as a part of dependency installed libvirt, virt-viewer and kvm and all necessary stuff
I am able to boot from cdrom giving the virtual machine a SCSI disk to install. The installation goes fine but after the installation, the machine does not boot from SCSI disk. The install command was: virt-install --name BHASKER_debian --ram 1024 --cdrom /tmp/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso --disk path=/VIRT/disks/DEBIAN,bus=scsi --network bridge=virt,model=e1000 --cpu core2duo --vcpus 2 --cpuset=1,2 --graphics vnc Running the qemu command seperately like this kvm -drive file=/VIRT/disks/DEBIAN,if=scsi,boot=on works perfectly well but under libvirt the machine goes to network boot and then fails booting. Is someone facing this issue or is it just me ? Am I doing anything wrong here ? Can someone help me here please ? I have tried to capture as much information with this mail but in case I miss anything can you please get back to me.
