[one-users] Problem trying to netboot or CD boot

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi,

Maybe for the installation you may try *without* the virtio drivers?

Also watchout for the automatic device mapping. Some versions of KVM
may have problems with gaps and multiple Buses. You can use
TARGET=hda, ... for the DISKs to override the defaults...

Good Luck

Ruben
