Hi all!

I'm doing some tests in a KVM virtual machine with CentOS 5.5 and it
seems that GRUB is not recognizing the Virtio devices:

# ll /dev/vd*
brw-r----- 1 root disk 253,  0 ago 17 23:35 /dev/vda
brw-r----- 1 root disk 253,  1 ago 17 23:35 /dev/vda1
brw-r----- 1 root disk 253,  2 ago 17 23:35 /dev/vda2
brw-r----- 1 root disk 253, 16 ago 18 00:27 /dev/vdb
brw-r----- 1 root disk 253, 17 ago 18 00:32 /dev/vdb1
brw-r----- 1 root disk 253, 18 ago 18 00:32 /dev/vdb2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# grub
Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.


    GNU GRUB  version 0.97  (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)

 [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported.  For the first word, TAB
   lists possible command completions.  Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
   completions of a device/filename.]
grub> root (hd0,0)
root (hd0,0)

Error 21: Selected disk does not exist


grub> root (hd1,0)
root (hd1,0)

Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Is there any way to solve this problem?


Thanks in advance for your replies.

Regards,
Daniel
