Which I can live without for the time being) I ran into the same isssue with FreeBSD images. These are paravirtualized drivers which are absolutely required to get the VM to work. Linux images usually have them already but for FreeBSD (and Windows) you need to install them by hand. note that when using kvm by hand you can specify the driver emulation required so this is why it boots by hand but not via openstack (you could also configure openstack to use different kvm settings, but the virtio driver is faster and installing the drivers on FreeBSD isn't too hard. I'm not much of a *BSD guy but I managed) -Jon _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
