Hi,
I tried to install taking inputs from [
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers ]
Tried to install .vdi installation and then convert to qcow2 format. I have
checked with "usual VirtualBox" and "virt-install" and "virt-install
--prompt" . I did change the IDE to ICH6 but no luck.
Then able to create & instantiate image, template and VMs and status is
Running.
But while during VNC image viewer from OpenNebula Sunstone GUI, it still
says either:
1. Booting from Hard Disk or 2. Trying to Boot -- No bootable device found
It tried to find the boot disk from CD/DVD/Floppy/Network but not found
The same disk is working fine from virt-manager and VirtualBox.
Regards,
Sudeep
