[libvirt-users] virt-install on powerpc64 issues
Hi!
I am trying to setup a guest using virt-install script:
/usr/bin/virt-install -n fc18guest5 -r 1024 \
--disk path=/home/aik/virtimg/fc18guest,size=8 \
-c /home/aik/virtimg/Fedora-18-ppc64-DVD.iso \
--video vga --arch=ppc64 -d --machine=pseries
And it fails. I could not find any relevant log in /var/log/libvirt/ so I
simply hacked /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc64 to print all the parameters
passed into it. So I got the command line (below, after the second
question) where the "-device scsi-cd" parameter is cut in a middle so
QEMU
fails to start. 788 chars long - is there a limit?
The second question is - where does virt-install store those xmls? I have
to choose a new name for a machine even if virt-install failed, in the
example it is "fc18guest5" (5 at the end). "virsh -c
qemu:///system list"
prints an empty list with no domains.
Thanks!
