Hi, Not sure if this is the right mailing list, but... I have a Linux VM (CentOS 5.4) VM. ?I cloned it with virt-clone, but the clone isn't bootable. ?When I attempt to boot it says: ? Booting from hard diskBoot failed: not a bootable diskFATAL: No bootable device The clone was made with the following command: virt-clone -o centos -n centosclone -f /path/to/new/image.img I've attempted it several times and get the same result. Has anyone seen this or know how to resolve it? Thanks,Dave -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

When you say it's "not bootable," what exactly do you see at time of failure? Whit
It says: booting from hard disk Booting failed device not bootable FATAL: failed to boot from device. Or something very similar.
