| xnox | nibbon_: you could clone and diff the configs..... in practice kvm can only boot in reasonably recent qemu with virtio devices only. No floppy disks, no legacy hdd, etc..... | 12:36 |
|---|---|---|
| xnox | nibbon_: all the old hardware is turned off. | 12:36 |
| xnox | kvm also has filesystems built-in to allow booting without initrd. | 12:36 |
| nibbon_ | xnox: wise advice :) | 13:47 |
| nibbon_ | so I think I cannot use it for booting a hypervisor :) | 13:47 |
| nibbon_ | the name is a bit misleading though | 13:48 |
| xnox | nibbon_: it is a kvm-guest kernel. but i think one can boot dom0 with it, and baremetal too if one does a little bit of care to ensure that one has uefi and all the legacy drivers are turned off in the bios. | 13:58 |
| xnox | nibbon_: reading linux-kvm - did you expect it to be KVM Host kernel? | 13:59 |
| nibbon_ | xnox: yeah, I did | 14:04 |
| xnox | nibbon_: it could be, but i don't expect it, to be the best one. Canonical Distribution of Openstack normally deploys on linux-generic, or linux-hwe-XX.YY | 14:48 |
| xnox | which is the default server flavour. | 14:49 |
| xnox | (aka KVM hosts) | 14:49 |
