Public bug reported: Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
I'm trying to boot a grub multiboot image with kvm -kernel and it is not functioning. '-kernel' should be capable of booting a multiboot image, and I'm passing it one. I created the image by running the following inside a ubuntu 10.04 guest. $ echo "set prefix=(hd0)/boot/grub" > mycfg.cfg $ grub-mkimage --output=grub-loader.img --config=mycfg.cfg \ --prefix=/boot/grub biosdisk ext2 part_msdos Then, I tried booting a disk image passing that loader to '-kernel'. kvm hangs showing only: Starting SeaBIOS (version 0.5.1-20100120_010601-rothera) I've built git from commit bc3a9ccc5ddea4c0c713ef6fb3c11d9a88cec169 at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/qemu-kvm.git , and it is functioning correctly.
