[CentOS] virt-install cannot mount virtio iso during installation
Hi guys. I have seen, read and test to install a windows 7 vm under centos 6 and kvm. I have install windows under kvm a lot of times, but is my first time with virtio. I want to try virtio drives, I have install virtio from fedora repo, download the iso, etc. I have try different options trying to understand how kvm want the option to add my virtio iso drive as cdrom. virt-install --name virtio --description='Windows 7 Virtio x64' --memory 4096 --vcpus 2 --arch=x86_64 --cdrom /var/isos/win7_prox64.iso --os-variant win7 --disk /dev/vg_vms1/virtio,bus=virtio --disk /opt/virtio-win-0.1.141.iso,device=cdrom,bus=ide --network bridge=br0,model=e1000 --graphics vnc,listen=192.168.2.16,password=cocacaco --noautoconsole --check-cpu virt-install --name virtio --description='Windows 7 Virtio x64' --memory 4096 --vcpus 2 --arch=x86_64 --cdrom /var/isos/win7_prox64.iso --os-variant win7 --disk /dev/vg_vms1/virtio,bus=virtio --disk /opt/virtio-win-0.1.141.iso,device=cdrom --network bridge=br0,model=e1000 --graphics vnc,listen=192.168.2.16,password=cocacaco --noautoconsole --check-cpu virt-install --name virtio --description='Windows 7 Virtio x64' --memory 4096 --vcpus 2 --arch=x86_64 --cdrom /var/isos/win7_prox64.iso --os-variant win7 --disk /dev/vg_vms1/virtio,bus=virtio --disk path=/opt/virtio-win-0.1.141.iso,device=cdrom --network bridge=br0,model=e1000 --graphics vnc,listen=192.168.2.16,password=cocacaco --noautoconsole --check-cpu virt-install --name virtio --description='Windows 7 Virtio x64' --memory 4096 --vcpus 2 --arch=x86_64 --cdrom /var/isos/win7_prox64.iso --os-variant win7 --disk /dev/vg_vms1/virtio,bus=virtio --disk /opt/virtio-win-0.1.141.iso,device=cdrom,bus=ide --network bridge=br0,model=e1000 --graphics vnc,listen=192.168.2.16,password=cocacaco --noautoconsole --check-cpu etc etc. Once I remove my 2nd disk my installation goes well, but my object is to try virtio drives. Every time I try windows boot say : boot failed : could not read from CDROM(code 0004) Can some one point where is my error and fix my parameters, I will appreciated and ready to learn more, thanks for your time!!!
