Hello, I have a small but annoying issue.
Host: * AMD Athlon64 * Debian Lenny, Kernel 2.6.26-1-amd64 * kvm-72 (Debian package) or kvm-76 (self-built) Guest: * monolithic vanilla 2.6.26, KVM_GUEST and KVM_CLOCK, VIRTIO for both block device and NIC * various Debian and Ubuntu versions I don't use any libvirt or similar things, I start the VMs by directly calling kvm in a script. I directly specify the kernel and it's options with the -kernel and -append parameters. Problem: Shutting down a VM from inside it (shutdown -h now) works just fine. Will now halt. [171368.812319] ACPI: Preparing to enter system sleep state S5 [171368.816964] Power down. [171368.820177] acpi_power_off called then the kvm process exits. However, restarting the VM (reboot) does not work ... Will now restart. [ 37.088270] Restarting system. [ 37.089775] machine restart this is where the KVM process hangs in a loop and uses 100% CPU on the host. I can still kill it (Ctrl-A x) or change to it's console, but system_restart doesn't seem to work there either. iggy suggested to use an extboot.bin from an earlier kvm version (I used kvm-60), didn't change. Any idea what could be wrong here?
