Hi folks, so has any one seen this weird behaviour, or is it me ? what I'm trying to do : Install an F10 virtual machine via qemu-kvm . (from the shell) . On a lenovo X200 running F10. How : I used the below #sudo qemu-img create -f qcow2 f10.qcow2 10G #sudo qemu-kvm -m 1024 -boot d -cdrom /export/isos/F10-i686-Live.iso -hda f10.qcow2 -localtime Here,I did an install on hard drive, once all the packages are installed, it fails to reboot(the screen blacks out). Now I try to invoke the VM via #sudo qemu-kvm fedora10.qcow2 Result : the below error is what I'm thrown. ----------------------------- could not detect stabilization, waiting 10 seconds Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while found volume group "volgroup00" using metadata type lvm2 unable to access resume device (/dev/VolGroup00/LogVo101) mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3 : no such file or diretory ----------------------------------- Other Info: (1) I booted into "single" user mode, and my /etc/fstab says the below --------------------------------------- [root@f10 /]# cat /etc/fstab # # /etc/fstab # Created by anaconda on Mon Mar 23 01:04:38 2009 # # Accessible filesystems, by reference, are maintained under '/dev/disk' # See man pages fstab(5), findfs(8), mount(8) and/or vol_id(8) for more info # /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 UUID=5d9e7d9a-106a-48fa-a82a-1618a5c47a18 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 ---------------------------------------------- (2) KVM version: kvm-74-10.fc10.i386 Does anyone see anything weird here??
