Hi, I tried to install taking inputs from [ http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers ]
Tried to install .vdi installation and then convert to qcow2 format. I have checked with "usual VirtualBox" and "virt-install" and "virt-install --prompt" . I did change the IDE to ICH6 but no luck. Then able to create & instantiate image, template and VMs and status is Running. But while during VNC image viewer from OpenNebula Sunstone GUI, it still says either: 1. Booting from Hard Disk or 2. Trying to Boot -- No bootable device found It tried to find the boot disk from CD/DVD/Floppy/Network but not found The same disk is working fine from virt-manager and VirtualBox.
