Embarassing: I just set out to try it on my laptop, and found that I had a working config which I wrote on 9th August but forgot about! The main difference is that it uses a vnd of the iso image rather than access it as a file... name = "dfly" builder="hvm" vcpus = 2 memory = 512 vif = [ 'bridge=bridge0' ] disk = [ 'phy:/dev/mapper/vg0-clang,hda,w', 'phy:/dev/vnd0a,hdc:cdrom,r' ] boot = "dc" serial = 'pty' and set boot_serial, set console=comserial at the loader prompt... Not all perfect, but that looks more like qemu: cd0 at ata1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 cd0: <QEMU QEMU DVD-ROM 0.10> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device cd0: 16.000MB/s transfers cd0: cd present [376032 x 2048 byte records] pass0 at ata1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 pass0: <QEMU QEMU DVD-ROM 0.10> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device pass0: 16.000MB/s transfers sg0 at ata1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 sg0: <QEMU QEMU DVD-ROM 0.10> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device sg0: 16.000MB/s transfers cd0: invalid primary partition table: no magic cd0: invalid primary partition table: no magic cd0: invalid primary partition table: no magic Mounting root from cd9660:/dev/cd0 cd0: invalid primary partition table: no magic cd0: invalid primary partition table: no magic iso_mountroot(): using session at block 0 cd0: invalid primary partition table: no magic cd0: invalid primary partition table: no magic cd9660: RockRidge Extension ...
