Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
Hi,
I can't use Norton Ghost under Ubuntu KVM, whereas the same version of
kvm under Debian launches Norton Ghost just fine.
Info of kvm under Debian:
$ dpkg -l | grep kvm
ii qemu-kvm 0.12.5+dfsg-3 Full virtualization on x86 hardware
$ cat /etc/issue
Debian GNU/Linux squeeze/sid \n \l
$ uname -rm
2.6.33-grml64 x86_64
Info of kvm under Ubuntu:
$ apt-cache policy qemu-kvm
qemu-kvm:
Installed: 0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu7.1
Candidate: 0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu7.1
Version table:
*** 0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu7.1 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-updates/main amd64
Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu7 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages
(I've just upgraded it to the latest version and tried again, same
problem)
The symptom is while kvm was lauching NG, it failed, and rebooted all
over again. I've tried many times and I've also tried both Norton Ghost
2003 and Norton Ghost 8.3. Same symptom.
Actual command used is,
kvm -m 1024 -smp 2 -usbdevice tablet -hda hda -cdrom /path/to
/NortonGhost-Version.iso -boot d
The same command, using the same hda & cdrom, works just fine under
Debian.
Please investigate
Thanks
PS. if you don't have a Norton Ghost iso file, you can try
Hiren.BootCD.8.6.iso. Works the same.
