Hi Dave- I just uploaded qemu-kvm 0.12.3 to Lucid, which includes a number of storage fixes, according to the changelog. It would be great if you could give that a test run and report back!
** Description changed: Binary package hint: qemu-kvm - (This may be #420423 but we're running a much newer kernel on lucid). + (This may be Bug #420423 but we're running a much newer kernel on + lucid). Host: Lucid 64bit uptodate as of 23rd January - i7-860 - 2.6.32-11-generic #15-Ubuntu qemu-kvm: Version: 0.12.2-0ubuntu1 Guest: lucid alpha 2 64bit iso (having pressed update-installer on it on 23rd Jan). Symptom: During install at a non-repeatable point the root filesystem of the guest becomes RO and there are dmesg logs on the guest says that there were write errors on vda1. The block numbers are different on repeated installs. There are no errors on the hosts dmesg. The disc is backed by a lvm lv, and I've tried writing it with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/main/fiddle2disk bs=1024k and the whole disc writes OK.
