Ah I never gave KVM or virtualization a try in Gentoo. None of my
servers have X though using X11 forwarding still works. In CentOS the
package is xorg-x11-xauth , looks like it may be x11-apps/xauth in
Gentoo.
No X anywhere in my environment <smile>. Somehow I normally manage!
Does "virsh iface-list" show tap5?
Actually that command errors out:
/virsh # iface-list
error: Failed to list active interfaces
error: this function is not supported by the connection driver:
virConnectNumOfInterfaces/
For the disk, this is what I have for my virtio disks...
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
<source file='/vmstore/images/domain0001.qcow2'/>
*<target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>*
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x06'
function='0x0'/>
</disk>
My XML had the type wrong, setting it to raw.
Alas, I still see the invoked KVM being passed:
/-drive
file=/kvms/test1.img,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,boot=on,format=qcow2 /
The "if=none" is the problem, it needs to be "if=virtio". KVM is also
still being passed the "-S" flag as its first parameter, so the CPUs are
not starting.
Also maybe add something like this to your virt-install line...
"--disk path=test1.img,device=disk,bus=virtio"
At this point, I'm just editing the XML, its easier. Once I get one
working, I can tweak for the others. Virt-install at least got me started.
