Hi All !

In addition to Floppy controllers KVM-88 also break VirtIO hard

disks. (Windows 2003 Drivers refuse to work now)

Quoted 5 lines

Linux (RHEL 5.3/x64) still boots off VirtIO Hard Disk.

It turned out to be a Qemu merge into KVM userspace:
kvm-87-119-ga8b7f95 (commit

Can you look into it?

Not sure if you familiar with this, but anyway:

$ git diff-tree -p bf011293f  | patch -R -p1 

Yes, Thanks, This is it ! This is the problem.

I, too, can confirm that reverting this commit solves the same problem for me. Having reverted the commit, I can once again boot with virtio disks.

In reply to Alexey Eromenko

VirtIO is still broken in qemu-kvm-0-11.0. Reverting the patch solves the problem.

Should I report that bug somewhere else?
