Hello,
Thank you for the reply and information.
I have also tried to use scsi controller on the VM with the same result. See
below the dmesg and VM configuration.
Also, since I do have access to the xen host, I have looked at the logs
under /var/log/xen and I found the following errors:
==> xen/qemu-dm-obsd_64_wks.log <==
xen be: qdisk-2080: xen be: qdisk-2080: error: Failed to get "write" lock
error: Failed to get "write" lock
xen be: qdisk-2080: xen be: qdisk-2080: initialise() failed
initialise() failed
I have also tried to disable xbf (through boot -c). It allowed the detection
of the disk and the installation went through, but at the next boot the disk
was not detected. I guess, I would need to save the boot config but I don’t
think it is the right approach. I would prefer to make it work without
having to disable xbf.
dmesg:
