Package: libvirt0
Version: 0.6.1-1
Severity: normal
Trying to create a guest either with virt-manager or with virt-install results
in an error:
libvirtError: internal error unable to start guest: No valid PXE rom found for
network device
But the usual PXE rom's of KVM are in place:
u...@cdserver:~$ ls -l /usr/share/kvm/pxe-*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32768 2008-12-24 12:43 /usr/share/kvm/pxe-e1000.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32768 2008-12-24 12:43 /usr/share/kvm/pxe-ne2k_pci.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32768 2008-12-24 12:43 /usr/share/kvm/pxe-pcnet.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32768 2008-12-24 12:43 /usr/share/kvm/pxe-rtl8139.bin
Powering up a guest directly with kvm -boot n works - PXE boot is ok.
stracing libvirtd I found out that it is looking for vitio's PXE rom:
u...@cdserver:~$ sudo strace -f -s 128 -p 1315 2>&1 | grep -i pxe
[pid 3491] open("/usr/share/kvm/pxe-virtio.bin", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[pid 3491] write(2, "No valid PXE rom found for network device\n"..., 42) = 42
[pid 1325] read(20, "No valid PXE rom found for network device\n"..., 1023) =
42
But so far it does not give me a chance to switch to some other nic model.
The guest іs not yet created and does not appear in virsh list.
Got the pxe-virtio.bin then from rom-o-matic.net. But so far I do not see
that that one gets shipped with newer KVM deb's.
Cheers,
Andreas

Virt-manager 0.8.3 introduces a new option to "customize VM before install",
which allows adjusting most VM options from the install wizard. So I'm
closing this bug report.
