It's how it works: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs- internals.1.html#architecture
It doesn't need access to the running kernel (nor to live kernel memory), but to a kernel image, and the kernel image in /boot is convenient for that purpose. Anyway this works fine on every other Linux distro except Ubuntu (even Debian) so IMO it's still an Ubuntu problem that can only be fixed by Ubuntu developers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1813662 Title: Cannot build VM To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libguestfs/+bug/1813662/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
