Can not boot CentOS VM using VirtIO in KVM
- by Jake
I converted qcow2 image to raw and changed I/O bus to VirtIO for a VM. now I can't boot that VM.
I Installed VirtIO driver with following command:
mkinitrd --with virtio_pci --with virtio_blk -f /boot/initrd-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)
and these are related kernel modules:
virtio_balloon 11329 0
virtio_blk 11593 3
virtio_pci 11845 0
virtio_ring 8513 1 virtio_pci
virtio 9541 3 virtio_balloon,virtio_blk,virtio_pci
and this is what happens during boot-up.
I also changed /boot/grub/device.map from "(hd0) /dev/sda" to "(hd0) /dev/vda"
but problem still exists. any ideas how to fix this ?
This is my default option to boot:
title CentOS (2.6.18-308.13.1.el5)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-308.13.1.el5 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
initrd /initrd-2.6.18-308.13.1.el5.img
