Changing back to New. Here's the command I used to create a VM:
sudo virt-install -n web_devel -r 256 -f web_devel.img -s 4 -c ISO
/jaunty-server-amd64.iso --accelerate --connect=qemu:///system --vnc
--noautoconsole
>From what I understand the --accelerate option makes use of hardware
acceleration options:
--accelerate
When installing a QEMU guest, make use of the KVM or KQEMU kernel
acceleration capabilities if available. Use of this option is recommended
unless a guest OS is
known to be incompatible with the accelerators. The KVM accelerator
is preferred over KQEMU if both are available.
Using the -v or -hvm option does not:
-v, --hvm This guest should be a fully virtualized guest
Request the use of full virtualization, if both para & full
virtualization are available on the host. This parameter may not be available
if connecting to a Xen
hypervisor on a machine without hardware virtualization support.
This parameter is implied if connecting to a QEMU based hypervisor.
I have hardware acceleration:
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge
mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext
fxsr_opt rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow rep_good nopl pni cx16 lahf_lm
cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy 3dnowprefetch
But the command thinks I don't. Maybe I'm mistaken and have my terms mixed up,
or I wasn't clear enough in the description, but the issue is that on a system
with a processor that supports the virtualization extensions I shouldn't have
to use the -v option. I should be able to use paravirtualization, by either
using the --accelerate or -p option.
Also, note this worked using virt-install on Hardy.
