Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Technologov (technologov) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: SCSI: Windows (XP) Full Format fails to complete on SCSI Initial Comment: Basically "Full Format" fails on SCSI disk. Tested on: KVM 60-x series up to KVM-77 Host: F7/x64, Intel CPU KVM: KVM-77 Guest OS: Windows XP, 32-bit Quick format succeeds and OS can be installed only that way. Since Linux uses quick format, and does not have Full Format capability AFAIK, Linux guests can be installed successfully. Qemu command: /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -m 256 -cdrom /isos/windows/WindowsXP-sp2-vlk.iso -boot d -drive file=/vm/xp-scsi-test.qcow2,if=scsi,boot=on -name WindowsXP-scsi-test -Alexey "Technologov", 16.10.2008. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Marcelo Tosatti (mtosatti) Date: 2008-10-17 17:11 Message: Alexey, Can you provide more details on the failure? Is it a hang, or the Windows SCSI driver complains? Are there error messages on the QEMU stdio? Other than that, the debug output Laurent asked for. >From what I recall full format works (or at least used to) on W2003. Will retest. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Laurent Vivier (lvivier) Date: 2008-10-16 11:36 Message: latest KVM introduces latest qemu. In this release of qemu SCSI commandz return status has been corrected, so unimplemented commands were silently ignored whereas now they return errors. The solution is easy: modify the code to ignore the faulty SCSI command, I did this for instance for VERIFY. Could you activate debug in hw/scsi-disk.c and send me logs ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=2171940&group_id=180599 -- 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
