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 -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.14-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages qemu-kvm depends on: ii qemu-system-x86 2.1+dfsg-2 qemu-kvm recommends no packages. qemu-kvm suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
