The -virtual kernel package should contain the acpiphp module. The intent of that package is to be used by virtual machines, and those machines should be able to use kvm's pci hotplug. That can be accomplished as I described in comment 4. Can we please have that done?
The documentation on setting up Eucalyptus right now (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Eucalyptus) suggests using /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.. and /boot/initrd.img-... for guest kernel and initrd respectively. The problem is that on a ubuntu system that will not result in functional pci hotplug support in the guest. Etienne suggested changing CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI to 'y' in kernel config. The other solution would be to get acpiphp.ko into the initrd that the user is told to use. That can be accomplished by adding it to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and running update-initramfs prior to 'ec2-bundle-image' and 'ec2-upload-bundle'. -- When running Ubuntu as an Eucalyptus VM instance, module acpiphp is not available to be loaded, complicating the use EBS volume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364916 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
