The first boot from the install dvd iso is ok and the installer work fine. But the guest system hangs after the installer finishes and I reboot the guest. I can see the grub boot menue but the system cannot load the initramfs. Testet with: - RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.5, 7.6 and 7.7 (RedHat uses xfs for the /boot and / partition) Guided install with the graphical installer, no lvm selected. - Debian Stable/Buster (Debian uses ext4 for / and /home partition) Guidet install with the graphical installer and default options. Used commandline to create the vm disk image: qemu-img create -f qcow2 /volumes/disk2-part2/vmdisks/vmtest10-1.qcow2 20G Used qemu commandline for vm installation: #!/bin/sh # vmtest10 Installation # /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu SandyBridge-IBRS \ -soundhw hda \ -M q35 \ -k de \ -vga qxl \ -machine accel=kvm \ -m 4096 \ -display gtk \ -drive file=/volumes/disk2-part2/images/debian-10.0.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom \ -drive file=/volumes/disk2-part2/images/vmtest10-1.qcow2,if=virtio,media=disk,cache=writeback \ -boot once=d,menu=off \ -device virtio-net-pci,mac=52:54:00:2c:02:6c,netdev=vlan0 \ -netdev bridge,br=br0,id=vlan0 \ -rtc base=localtime \ -name "vmtest10" \ -usb -device usb-tablet \ -spice disable-ticketing \ -device virtio-serial-pci \ -device virtserialport,chardev=spicechannel0,name=com.redhat.spice.0 \ -chardev spicevmc,id=spicechannel0,name=vdagent $* Host OS: Archlinux (last updated at 10.10.2019) Linux testing 5.3.5-arch1-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Oct 7 19:03:08 UTC 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux No libvirt in use.
