This is damn impressive! All I needed is: ./kvm run -k /home/asias/qemu-stuff/bzImage --rootfs /mnt/ I found that if I boot with ./kvm run -k /home/asias/qemu-stuff/bzImage --rootfs /mnt/ I will get: sh-2.05b# echo a > /root/a sh: /root/a: No such file or directory If I boot with sudo ./kvm run -k /home/asias/qemu-stuff/bzImage --rootfs /mnt/ sh-2.05b# echo a > /root/a works. It seems that it is a permission related problem, however, the warning message is "/root/a: No such file or directory", any ideas? -- Best Regards, Asias He -- 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
