Package: qemu-system-x86 Version: 2.0.0+dfsg-6 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I want to use the Q35 qemu platform for my virtual machines. I start qemu with the following command line: vimaowner@osprey:~$ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -machine type=q35 \ -cpu kvm32 -m 512 -balloon none -hda virtuals/fai/fai_root.img -cdrom \ cdroms/grml96-full_2014.03.iso -boot order=d -name fai -vga qxl -spice \ port=5900,addr=localhost,disable-ticketing -monitor stdio I expect to see the grml isolinux boot menu if I connect via spice. I can connect to spicy via thomas@osprey:~/tmp$ spicy -h localhost -p 5900 and see that seabios starts, that it tries to boot from floppy and network and that it fails with "No bootable device." It seems that the harddisk and the cdrom are not available for booting. I tryd all q35 machines - this means: pc-q35-1.4 pc-q35-1.5 pc-q35-1.6 pc-q35-1.7 pc-q35-2.0 All have the same problem. But if i change the machine type to "pc-i440fx-2.0" it works as expected. This means the following command line works: vimaowner@osprey:~$ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -machine \ type=pc-i440fx-2.0 -cpu kvm32 -m 512 -balloon none -hda \ virtuals/fai/fai_root.img -cdrom cdroms/grml96-full_2014.03.iso -boot \ order=d -name fai -vga qxl -spice \ port=5900,addr=localhost,disable-ticketing -monitor stdio The image files: virtuals/fai/fai_root.img is a empty qcow2 img-file created with: vimaowner@osprey:~$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o \ "preallocation=metadata" fai_root.img 2G cdroms/grml96-full_2014.03.iso is a iso-file which one can download from <http://grml.org/download/> It seems qemu 1.3 in RedHat had the same problem: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=893305> but the workaround "-acpitable file=/usr/share/seabios/q35-acpi-dsdt.aml" does not help in my case. What did I more? * I tryd to start qemu as root - no difference. * I minimalized the command line to vimaowner@osprey:~$ qemu-system-x86_64 -machine type=q35 -hda \ virtuals/fai/fai_root.img -cdrom cdroms/grml96-full_2014.03.iso -boot \ order=d -display curses This does not help ether.
