Package: qemu-kvm
Version: 2.1+dfsg-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation? 
          I added a virtio-9P filesystem device to an existing VM which then 
fails to initialize.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
          I used virtual machine manager to add the device with the VM powered 
off. Removing the device avoids the problem.

The virtual machine manager reports the following error in an error dialog:

Error starting domain: internal error: early end of file from monitor: possible 
problem:
qemu-system-x86_64: -device 
virtio-9p-pci,id=fs0,fsdev=fsdev-fs0,mount_tag=pwk,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7: 
Virtio-9p Failed to initialize fs-driver with id:fsdev-fs0 and export 
path:/home/stevie/Documents/PWK
qemu-system-x86_64: -device 
virtio-9p-pci,id=fs0,fsdev=fsdev-fs0,mount_tag=pwk,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7: Device 
initialization failed.
qemu-system-x86_64: -device 
virtio-9p-pci,id=fs0,fsdev=fsdev-fs0,mount_tag=pwk,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7: Device 
'virtio-9p-pci' could not be initialized

Can you please advise? I'd like to use a passthrough file system with my Linux 
VMs.

Regards

Steve
