Hi,
apparently the virtual hardware that libvirt generates doesn't match the one
created with:
qemu -m 512 -hda centos5.5.img -cdrom centos.iso -boot d
therefore windows detects a hardware change and it won't boot.
I suggest using a different technique, use a template similar to this one:
------------------8<--------------
[...]
OS = [
BOOT = "cdrom",
ARCH = "x86_64"
]
DISK = [
source = "/path/to/windows.iso",
type = "cdrom",
target = "hdc"
]
DISK = [ TYPE = block,
SIZE = 10240,
SAVE = yes,
TARGET = sda ]
GRAPHICS = [
TYPE = "vnc",
LISTEN = "0.0.0.0",
PORT = "5900"
]
[...]
------------------>8--------------
Once the VM is running you can install the OS with VNC. After that you will
be able to run the image.
Hope this helps.
cheers,
Jaime
