This bugreport has nothing to do with macvtap. Your problem with cpu/machine and kvm(64) - you forgot -enable-kvm option. -enable-kvm is a shorthand for -machine accel=kvm, that's the source of you confusion, -- it is not -machine kvm and not -cpu kvm which you tried to intermix. And yes, there's no docs about using macvtap. > a tip here I can share for anyone is you don't need libvirt at all, but just > unixterm/vdeterm or even just cat&&socat to access a unix monitoring socket > for kvm console commands. the faq at the kvm site is actually incorrect about > needing libvirt. > ( "How do I use KVM on a headless machine (without a local GUI?) > Install a management tool such as virt-manager on a remote machine." ) qemu has a very simple command-line interface to not require any management whatsoever. But you have to use correct options, not mix-match several of them in a bogus combination. Thanks, /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
