I started QEMU, then went through the steps of migrating an image. This worked with this F21 image from F21 to F24 and again to F28. This image has some restricted content data that I work with in this manner.
What are your "steps of migrating an image"? Do you copy the xml definition file for the VM as well?
Adding the xml file was not enough. So here are the steps:
Create a new virtual machine Import existing disk image click browse click the Fedora21 image file click on chose this image Choose operating system start typing fedora, then click on including EOL versions; select Fedora 21
This time I am using 2MB memory (last was 1MB; I can't figure out how to tell what I assigned back on the F28 system) Also 2 cpus, as I have 4. finish
After the kernel select menu, it moves on to a blank screen with a flashing kernel. Finally I am seeing messages on the screen. Top is reporting 200% cpu utilization.
It too over 2 hours until it got to the login dialog!
I am checking things out, but I am see terrible performance.
4493 qemu 20 0 4541024 1.7g 19780 S 105.0 54.5 55:46.00 qemu-syst+
Often 200% on my x140e. I am trying to start firefox right now, and that is taking long as well.
So something is wrong with qemu at least in regards to F21 support.
