I have the virtio drivers working with RHEL4. The virtio_net appears to be working better than e1000 for the workload I am testing with (though I still the need the noapic boot option). The virtio_blk driver mostly works (the VM freezes from time and time which gdb and strace seem to clear); its performance so far lags the scsi driver. david Avi Kivity wrote: > This is the first release of the kvm drivers disc -- a collection of kvm > guest drivers packaged as an ISO 9660 CD-ROM for easy installation. > > The driver disc can be obtained from the kvm download page, below. > > Initial release: > - kvm-guest-drivers-linux-1 > - kvm-guest-drivers-windows-1 > > http://kvm.qumranet.com > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
