Hi Christian, Thank for for the response. This is indeed a troubling bug - especially since it crashes the entire system. The clarify, I originally posted about the issue in /r/linux on Reddit, but because of a time critical deadline I needed to uninstall 19.10. This is my production machine and I attempted to install 19.10 over the weekend. In my haste I forgot to take a snapshot of the log files!
Brian chimed in that he also was experiencing the same issues, so I asked him if he would be willing to provide his log files so I could open the bug report. I *can* answer some of your questions. In regards to the networking, I was just using the standard networking that came pre-configured. The XML looks something like this (stored at /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml) <network> <name>default</name> <uuid>354a5337-37fb-47f9-a88b-1d1c505c5652</uuid> <forward mode="nat"> <nat> <port start="1024" end="65535"/> </nat> </forward> <bridge name="virbr0" stp="on" delay="0"/> <mac address="52:54:00:3f:c0:bf"/> <domain name="default"/> <ip address="192.168.100.1" netmask="255.255.255.0"> <dhcp> <range start="192.168.100.128" end="192.168.100.254"/> </dhcp> </ip> </network> I don't have the exact values any more, but they were very similar. The key is that the forwarding is NAT, and the virtual network is named "default". The XML for the actual VM looks something like this (again not exact values, but very similar): interface type="network"> <mac address="52:54:00:c1:03:4c"/> <source network="default"/> <model type="e1000e"/> <address type="pci" domain="0x0000" bus="0x01" slot="0x00" function="0x0"/> </interface> I would also be able to provide you with a stock Windows Server 2019 image if you would like for testing purposes. If you think this would be helpful, send me an email at rstrube --at-- gmail.com and I'll send you a link to download the image. When I did a quick check in my logs, I did not notice any kernel panics or anything that truly stood out to me in my syslog or the dmesg logs. Perhaps Brian would be able to assist more since he still has 19.10 installed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849720 Title: Running VM with Virtual NIC Crashes Host OS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1849720/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
