Tsirkin" Hi, > I don't know why RHEL7 SeaBIOS does not work on RHEL6. But note that > it's a really old version (0.12). Hmm, works for me on a quick smoke test. Do you remember what exactly broke and which version it was? Maybe the 1.7.2 -> 1.7.5 update fixed it? Or was it live-migration by chance? rhel6 qemu doesn't emulate pam registers correctly, and seabios has a workaround for that. So live-migrating between versions with and without correct pam emulation creates some *ahem* very interesting corner cases ... cheers, Gerd
