I've been watching this bug for a while cause i was going to upgrade my home server to ubuntu 11.10. So far, even with the bridge configured above, the interface doesnt appear in virt-manager. If i manually specify the bridge while creating a vm, it does attach on boot but cant network boot from it. Looking at the ubuntu-virt ppa it doesnt appear to contain anything for 11.10 either. Is there another ppa i should be using? Im fine with it not appearing in the interface list if it would work from a VM (though im a little lost as to why it is connecting to the bridge, but not booting from the network - seems to ignore the boot options entirely)
The thing im getting at (i've been using ubuntu on my desktop for quite some time, i haven't done so for servers as yet) is there supposed to be another tool people use on ubuntu instead of virt-manager/libvirt? It just seems to me that lacking the ability to do virtualisation is a huge problem for a servers os? or is virt'n not much of a focus for ubuntu? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/520386 Title: libvirt-bin hypervisor does not support virConnectNumOfInterfaces / unable to create domain with virt-manager using network bridge To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/520386/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
