Subject: Installing a guest from a iso
Date: Wed, 04 Oct 2006 15:47:45 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <45240FE1.9040701@virtualiron.com> (raw)

It's been a while since I installed a guest and I'm having trouble booting from a cd iso.
My config to boot from a CD is from before the new QEMU was introduced.  Has the syntax
of this changed?  Here is what I have in my config to boot from a CD iso file I have
on my dom0 root.


#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Disk image for
cdrom = '/boot/RHEL4U2-64b.boot.iso'

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# boot on floppy (a), hard disk (c) or CD-ROM (d)
#boot=[a|c|d]
boot = 'd'

The guest console reports:

CDROM boot failure code : 0002
Boot from CD-Rom failed
FATAL: Could not read the boot disk
