Subject: disk=['file://..xvda'] not working for boot disks anymore?
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2016 15:54:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160122205433.GA15535@char.us.oracle.com> (raw)

Hey,

This parameter
disk = ['file:/root/sol.dd,xvda,w','file:/root/sol-11_2_15_5_1-text-x86.iso,xvdb:cdrom,r']

works with qemu-traditional, but if I try with qemu-xen it
does not find the disk:

(d15) [2016-01-22 20:50:03] Booting from c980:0361

while with qemu-traditional:

It does work with Xen 4.4, but that is ancient. I hadn't yet
tried Xen 4.5 nor 4.6.

I am hoping one of you knows exactly which commit might have made
this change?

Note that the name is 'xvda', not 'hda'. Thanks!
