Hi, I have some questions regarding http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Virtio ie., paravirtualization kvm with libvirt
Followings are quotes and my questions, ,----- | We assume that you have installed the virtio-compatible guest | under KVM using libvirt (ie. using something like virt-install or | virt-manager). `----- What's the default libvirt package for Debian? ,----- | Note, this step (changing Disk (block) device driver ) is only | needed in order to transition a guest from IDE or SCSI to | virtio. If you initially install the guest using a virtio disk, or | if you update the kernel package while booted from a virtio disk, | then this step is not needed. `----- I had always been starting my kvm using command line: kvm -m 1024 -hda hda . . . I.e., the HD device had already been created, and I never need to specify any driver before. What should I do to use the virtio drive interface? Moreover, is the paravirtualization only involves network and disk drivers? How about mouse? I.e., the copy/paste from/to host feature, is it possible now? All in all, is there nice step-by-step how-to for paravirtualization Linux guest with libvirt for Debian?
