Public bug reported: Binary package hint: virt-manager
I am running Hardy with all the update, as well as the proposed update to virt-manager: 0.5.3-0ubuntu10. I have successfully installed and am running a Windows XP virtual machine. The virtual machine currently has a disk image as the only hard drive and an .iso of the windows XP installation CD as the only CD. I now want to use a different CD, but I am having problems. When I try to add another CD device from the "Virtual Machine Details" window, I get the following error: Unable to complete install: 'There are no more available virtual disk device nodes' When I try to "disconnect" the current CD (which presumably allows me to choose a different ISO to attach?), I get the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/details.py", line 851, in toggle_cdrom self.vm.disconnect_cdrom_device(self.window.get_widget("disk-target-device").get_text()) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 610, in disconnect_cdrom_device self._change_cdrom(result, origdisk) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 557, in _change_cdrom self.vm.attachDevice(newxml) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 214, in attachDevice if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainAttachDevice() failed', dom=self) libvirtError: virDomainAttachDevice() failed only CDROM disk devices can be attached When I eject the existing Windows XP CD from inside the virtual machine, this works, but there is no way to "insert" a new CD. The only solution that I have found is to shutoff the virtual machine, delete the existing IDE CD and re-add the IDE CD, but now pointing to the new .iso file. This works, but is not very practical. ** Affects: virt-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- error trying to add second CD to virt machine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/230359 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
