OpenELEC on KVM on CentOS7 #4910

Closed smacz42 closed 7 years ago

smacz42 commented 8 years ago

Hello all, hope all is well.

I've been trying to install OpenELEC on CentOS7 as a VM on KVM unsuccessfully. I am able to spin up various other distros (Debian, pfSense) easily enough. However, I keep getting a No bootable device error when I spin up the OpenELEC VM.

I downloaded the OpenELEC beta 2 .img file from the downloads page. I've read that KVM support was integrated(?) here but am unable to find out if that is in the beta 2 release. Any help?

mount OE.img as primary disk (and setup boot from him) add second disk where you will install and use SATA emulation not VIRTIO driver (virto blk driver is as module and i cannot start with him OE, when in builtin then is no problem with boot with Virtio )

i tried create file in configfiles/modules-load.d - virtio-blk.conf and put line virtio-blk, virtio but nothing help

you can also use OE img frome LimeTech where all kvm modules are builtin here link: https://s3.amazonaws.com/dnld.lime-technology.com/images/OpenELEC/OpenELEC-unRAID.x86_64-6.0.0_1.tar.xz
