NFS mounted disk images

[Magicboiz <magicboiz-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

Hello list,

when I try to run a virtual machins with disk images stored into NFS
mounted directories, the virtual machine cannot use the IDE disk as
expected. This happens with linux(debian/centos) and other OS, like
OpenBSD, OpenSolaris(nexenta), etc. For example, during installation of
guest oses, they cannot partition the disk.

This is how I run KVM:

sudo /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -m 256 -boot d
-cdrom /mnt/debian-40r1-i386-netinst.iso -hda /mnt/disco.img -net nic
-net tap,ifname=tap0,script=qemu-ifup 


And this is my NFS mounted partition:

10.172.224.3:/export on /mnt type nfs
(rw,tcp,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,addr=10.172.224.3)


kernel: 2.6.22 /Ubuntu Gutsy  2.6.22-10-generic
KVM 36


Do you know what's happening?? Pherhaps i'm doing something wrong....??

Regards.
