Public bug reported:
Hello
We have converted a parallels windows 2012 R2 image with the command
qemu-img convert -p -f parallels -O raw
./TestLibvirt.pvm/TestLibvirtMig-0.hdd/TestLibvirtMig-0.hdd.0.hds
/var/lib/libvirt/images/testlibvirtmig.raw
Afterthat we have created a new entry with virtual machine manager and
used this raw-hdd file as "import existing disk image"
Then we booted this virtual server and we got the error
"Booting from Hard Disk"
"no Bootable device"
Test 1: we also tried to "overwrite" the windows server drive
1. Create a vm with windows 2012 r2 (W2K12R2) with virtual machine manager.
Which runs good
2. Then we mounted in the command line the "no bootable device" server as
source (raw image)
mount /ev/mapper/loop0p4 /mnt/source
3. Then we mounted the new created (W2K12R2) as target (raw image)
mount /ev/mapper/loop1p2 /mnt/target
4. with the copy command we have overwritten all files on the windows drive
rsync -av --delete /mnt/source/* /mnt/target/
5. reboot the server and we have a blue screen and it tells me something
prl_strg.sys
"your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart ...... If you'd like to
know more, you can search online later for this error:
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED(prl_strg.sys)
Test 2: We also did a qemu-img convert from an ubuntu 14.04 disk and
this works perfect.
Thanks a lot
