There is a boot regression in kvm-72:scsi and virtio images will not survive a "reboot" from within the guest. Only drives with if=ide survives a rebooting of the guest. That is, this will create a guest that will survive any number of reboots: qemu-system-x86_64 -M -drive file=a,if=ide,media=disk,boot=on -boot c While this will only survive the first boot: qemu-system-x86_64 -M -drive file=a,if=scsi,media=disk,boot=on -boot c OR qemu-system-x86_64 -M -drive file=a,if=virtio,media=disk,boot=on -boot c
What does "survive" mean?
Also the extboot work done by H. Peter Anvin finally makes the newer isolinux menus to work but the older isolinux (for example the installer to ubuntu 7.10)
Ubuntu doesn't use isolinux, it uses gfxboot. Older versions of gfxboot are known to be broken with KVM on Intel.

still does not work. It no longer segfaults though but instead the guest completely hangs. Much improvement though! /Henrik Holst -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
