Hi,

I generated a VM in virt-manager and that failed to boot. the EFI 
firmware didn't see the disk. Starting the VM on the command line I was 
able to proceed:

qemu-system-arm -M virt-10.0,usb=off,dump-guest-core=off,acpi=off  -cpu 
cortex-a7 -m 1024   -bios /usr/share/AAVMF/AAVMF32_CODE.fd   -drive 
file=/dev/mapper/toe-vbanana,format=raw   -cdrom 
/var/lib/libvirt/cd/debian-trixie-DI-rc2-armhf-netinst.iso -boot d 
-nographic

The installed system als didn't boot in the libvirt VM, but in the 
command line VM. I had to strip down the libvirt VM to the bare minimum 
of virtual hardware to get the Vm to boot.

Greetings
Marc

Boot method: CD
Image version: debian-trixie-DI-rc2-armhf-netinst.iso 2025-07-05
Date: <Date and time of the install>

Machine: emulated qemu VM on an amd64 host
Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred>

Comments/Problems:

libvirt vm resulted in a vm that didnt see the disk in the efi firmware 
and thus didnt boot. See above.

Please make sure that any installation logs that you think would
be useful are attached to this report. (You can find them in the
installer system in /var/log/ and later on the installed system
under /var/log/installer.) Please compress large files using gzip.
