Hi,
I am getting following 'qemu: could not load kernel' error while trying to
create a new VM using virt-install or virt-manager. The software versions are
as follows: CentOS 6.2, Libvirt 0.9.4, qemu-kvm 2:0.12.1.2-2.209.el6_2.1.
The qemu.conf has disabled dynamic_ownership setting. The VM instantiation has
worked fine before when dynamic_ownership was enabled (default). So is this
error related to dynamic ownership being disabled? I appreciate any help on how
to debug this error further.
Also, is there any documentation on why/when dynamic_ownership setting should
be used? We have enabled it to figure this out through some test installs but
right now unable to move further with the install step itself.
