Hi,
I just noticed that once I upgrade to libvirt-0.9.6-1 from the virt-preview
repo on my Fedora 15 machine I can no longer boot guests that use virtio
disks. I only get "Boot failed: could not read the boot disk".
Removing the disk and re-adding it as IDE drive allows KVM to boot from the
disk (although the full boot obviously fails due to the hda/vda naming
difference but that's expected).
After downgrading to libvirt-0.8.8-7 again the problem goes away and the
guest boot fine from virtio disks.
Is this a known problem? Do I have to configure something differently to
make this work as it should?
What version of Seabios are you using? I believe support for direct
booting from virtio disks was added only recently.
Kind regards,
Ruben
