Hi, I made an mknod myself now, did a cat of /sys/class/misc/kvm/dev 18 64
and did a mknod /dev/kvm c 18 64 everything OK now how come I dont have the /dev automatically ? udevtrigger didn't help, pgrep udevd showed the pid of udevd... so it was alive and kicking. even recompiled the whole thing with modules loaded and had the same problem. recreated it manually with mknod... i'm running the latest stable debian etch kernel 2.6.20.7 grtZ Ben Avi Kivity wrote: > Benjamin Budts wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I'm running debian, installed kvm-18 from source, it installed fine... >> >> I have an intel s5000pal motherboard with dual core xeon 64bit, >> virtualization enabled in my bios. >> >> question 1 : is it normal i dont have this file : qemu-system-x86_64 , i >> only have the qemu file in my /bin >> >> kvm and kvm_intel load fine with modprobe without errors or info in dmesg. >> >> toranaga:/usr/src/kvm-18# lsmod >> Module Size Used by >> kvm_intel 19852 0 >> kvm 55128 1 kvm_intel >> >> I did the following : >> >> ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 /virtual/test/vtest.img 5G >> works out fine... >> >> ./qemu . -hda /virtual/test/vtest.img -cdrom /virtual/win_corp.iso -boot >> d -m 512 -no-acpi >> >> gives the following error : could not open /dev/kvm ... >> >> in /proc/misc I found kvm as well : >> >> 62 kvm >> >> but I dont have the /dev/kvm ... udev is installed though >> >> can someone push me in the right direction please ? :) >> >> >> > > Is udevd alive?
