Ah, didn't think of the filesystem.
So it's either making the SD card directly

[PATCH v4 0/4] virtio: Clean up scatterlists and use the DMA API
...iolation, and this won't work if the device is
a real PCI device. Alternatively, it can treat the device like any
other PCI device and use the IOMMU. This is a bit slower, and it is
also incompatible with current hypervisors.
There really are virtio devices that are pieces of silicon and not
figments of a hypervisor's imagination [1]. We could teach virtio_pci
to use physical addressing on ppc64, but that seems like a pretty
awful hack, and it'll start needing quirks as soon as someone tries to

Too bad. That takes care of question #1.
Are those the wrong settings to force new files to be saved with a given
user and the given access rights? A new file is still root:root and 655

Bug#477525: Suggested fix
vifnum appears to be entirely a figment of network-route's imagination;
I can see no evidence of it elsewhere in the Debian Xen packages.
Since network-route claims to default to eth0 and does not document
vifnum at all, the obvious fix would be to change:
netdev=${netdev:-eth${vifnum}}
to:
netdev=${netdev:-eth0}

Hi Andy,
As you're discovering, there's a reason no one has done the DMA
API before.
So the problem is that ppc64's IOMMU is a platform thing, not a bus
thing. They really do carve out an exception for virtio devices,
because performanc...

[PATCH v4 0/4] virtio: Clean up scatterlists and use the DMA API
...ree
that such a bus uses a direct mapping and have the guest use appropriate
"direct map" dma_ops.
But we need to keep backward compatibility with existing
guest/hypervisors so the default must remain as it is.

I am aware of that. There are also attempts at using virtio to make two
machines communicate via a PCIe link (either with one as endpoint of the
other or via a non-transparent switch).
Which is why I'm not objecting to what you are trying to do ;-)
