Fwd: freebsd 7.0 32-bit won't boot with kvm scsi

2008-10-15 Thread Sterling Windmill
Is there a bugzilla I can post this issue to? 

I'm still unable to get freebsd 7.0 booting after install with if=scsi on 
kvm-77 

Thanks in advance, 
Sterling Windmill

The only difference between my working IDE config and the broken SCSI is the 
if= parameter. 

Here is how I am calling qemu for this virtual machine: 

/usr/local/kvm/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -m 512 -drive 
file=/dev/mapper/storage-freebsd,if=scsi,boot=on -net nic,model=e1000 -net 
tap,script=/root/kvmstuff/qemu-ifup -daemonize -vnc :2 \ 
-boot c -cdrom /root/kvmstuff/7.0-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso 

Interestingly, I also note that while IDE seems to work fine, restarting the 
guest by issuing a shutdown -r while logged into freebsd or by sending a 
ctrl+alt+del to the virtual machine via VNC results in a boot failure. Shutting 
down the qemu instance and starting it up again allows freebsd to boot 
properly. 

Thanks again, 
Sterling Windmill

 Has anyone else experienced this? 
 

Have you enabled extboot (-drive ...,boot=on)?

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
