Title:
14.04 ovmf causes oops when running update-grub under kvm
Status in “edk2” package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
On up to date 14.04, if I create a vm with:
virt-install --connect=qemu:///system --name=sb-saucy-amd64 --arch=x86_64
--ram=768 \
--disk=path=<path
to>/sb-saucy-amd64.qcow2,size=8,format=qcow2,bus=ide,sparse=True \
--virt-type=kvm --accelerate --hvm --cdrom=<path to>/saucy-desktop-amd64.iso \
--os-type=linux --os-variant=generic26 --graphics=vnc
--network=network=default,model=virtio \
--video=cirrus --noreboot --boot=loader=OVMF.fd
I get to the EFI boot menu. Choose Install Ubuntu, then automatic
partitioning, with everything else defaults. By the time it gets to
'Running update-grub', the installer kernel oops with the attached
screenshot (to get it, go to tty1 when grub starts installing, then it
will eventually oops when update-grub is run).
If I downgrade to ovmf that is in 13.10, the install completes without
a traceback. Obviously, the kernel should not traceback, but clearly
there is a problem with edk2 too, so I am filing the bug there. Please
reassign as necessary.
