As for 9pvirtio, which is what Stefanos is talking about, you can read “Filesystem Passthrough for KVM”: this is the modern way to expose a directory from the host to KVM guests [0] (the other possibility being the virtual FAT drives [1], which are slow, very limited, and now deprecated by QEMU). -- Guilhem.

No. Long: When the bugreport, BR, came in, I had never heard of "9p" before. I saw a debian-installer BR for a kernel issue, adding kernel modules. Avoiding yes-no-question "Are the modules in the kernel?", I asked "What are kernel modules names?" and attempt to tag for more information. That tagging failed, there is no tag 'Moreinfo', it is 'moreinfo' When I did "Control: tag -1 -moreinfo" I was saying two things: * no more extra information needed * I have learnt that the tage 'moreinfo' is all lowercase Groeten Geert Stappers P.S. I'm aware that my attempt to merge #809435 with #811198 failed. The Control: block -1 by 811198 is new attempt to cross-reference both bugs at meta level. They are allready referenced with URLs.

Shouldn't the modules come from the same build as the kernel? If yes then the block is more appropriate, since the relevant modules for 9pvirtio (9pnet-virtio, 9p and its dependencies 9pnet and fscache) are currently available in the regular kernel, but not in the d-i kernel. -- Guilhem. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
