13:47:35 < Dieterbe> why is that needed? people have
reported to me that the images booted fine on kvm
13:47:51 < brain0> they do, but not if you add a cd drive as virtio 13:48:01 < brain0> and without virtio, it will all be slow 13:48:05 < brain0> painfully slow 13:48:44 < Dieterbe> oh i c. install iso initramfs... hmmm , i guess that's done in archiso? 13:49:19 < brain0> I guess too 13:53:18 < brain0> Dieterbe: http://projects.archlinux.org/archiso.git/commit/?id=e7d88f5237fb77b70b85709515360a3fb3cc3f5d this should be fixed now. |
This task depends upon
> Booting with '-drive if=virtio,media=cdrom,...' now works in qemu, so
> that confirms that virtio works in initramfs.
>
> After initramfs completed, virtio always worked properly.
