There are problems:
First, btrfs(first install) is not able to boot with success. So when it is
also impossible(and it is here) to perform another installation on this virtual
disk which would lead to a working system, it is also not possible to get the
logs.
The only way is a direct extraction from the virtual disk(ha, good luck!->seems
to be not recommend; it is possible do mount a .vdi in windows7 which I´ve done
a while ago, but with KVM;???)
Second, I´ve deleted the old btrfs .raw, so in the moment I can´t extract the
logs from such a vm either it should be possible, I have just a fresh install
here with LVM.
Third, there was not long ago a other btrfs bug here also in early installation
phase. An inspection of the logs has shown that there are no entries in such a
early phase.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A suggestion: I´ve seen that openSUSE is performing automated testing.
A bug like this is exactly what could be added to this test, because it would
be only a test of installation works(with successful start of the system) or it
do not. Exactly what your collegians are doing:
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Concept_QA#Kind_of_QA_tests
line: "product images have been build => an automatable installation shall run
inside of a VM (also emulated, e.g. with QEMU)"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No hard feelings for, but I can´t see how to provide logs to you.
