*microvm* is a minimalist machine type without PCI nor ACPI support, so
that seems to be a problem for `vhost-user-fs-pci`.

Have you tried with the plain 'vhost-user-fs-device' model instead?

No, I did not, I didn’t know it existed. Using `vhost-user-fs-device` instead of `vhost-user-fs-pci` got it going. Thank you very much.


Kind regards,

Paul
