Re: bhve bug report: attempting to physical DVD drive for install CD is unbootable
Hi Aryeh, The "-d" option was meant to specify the disk or the ISO file image so I am not surprised that it doesn't work with /dev/cd0. Is there any reason that you cannot use an ISO image file to boot the guest? best Neel On Mon, Sep 30, 2013 at 3:16 PM, Aryeh Friedman wrote: > With the foillowing script: > > truncate -s 20G /a > ifconfig tap0 destroy > ifconfig tap0 create > ifconfig tap0 up > sleep 5 > ifconfig bridge0 addm tap0 up > /usr/sbin/bhyvectl --vm=a --destroy > /usr/sbin/bhyveload -m 1024 -d /dev/cd0 a > /usr/sbin/bhyve -c 1 -m 1024 -AI -H -P -g 0 -s 0:0,hostbridge -s > 1:0,virtio-net,tap0 -s 2:0,virtio-blk,/a -s 3:0,virtio-blk,/dev/cd0 -S > 31,uart,stdio a > > I get the following: > > FreeBSD/amd64 User boot, Revision 1.1 > (aryeh@testcloud, Wed Sep 11 22:56:07 EDT 2013) > > can't load 'kernel' > OK ls > open '/' failed: device not configured > ___ > freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization > To unsubscribe, send any mail to " > freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" > ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
