[Bug 1209954] New: Installation via "virt-install --graphics none ..." renders the system unbootable
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1209954 Bug ID: 1209954 Summary: Installation via "virt-install --graphics none ..." renders the system unbootable Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.5 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: screening-team-bugs@suse.de Reporter: opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Hi all, when I install openSUSE Leap 15.4 or openSUSE Leap 15.5 using virt-install, as soon as I use the "--graphics none" parameter the system does not boot after the installation. 1. The system reboots, shows the GRUB menu (both when using virt-viewer or virt-manager or when using virsh console). 2. The default entry is selected. 3. "Loading Linux 5.14.21-150400.22-default ..." is being shown (which is the echo command before loading the kernel in grub.cfg) 4. The GRUB boot menu is shown again Steps 2/3/4 can be repeated endlessly. I have tested with and without Autoyast files. I have tested with 15.4 and 15.5. I have tested both with a NET-install ISO image and with "--location=...". The change in the virt-install invocation between a working and a non-working installation is that "--graphics none" is added. The manpage for libvirt says that --graphics only influences the way the VM is being accessed, but does not change any virtual hardware. I have not yet found out, what exactly goes wrong. The full invocation: ``` virt-install \ --name=somename \ --disk path=somename.qcow2,bus=virtio,format=qcow2 \ --network=bridge:virbr0,model=e1000 \ --ram=1024 \ --os-variant=sle15sp4 \ --location="http://download.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss" \ --accelerate ``` Host system is openSUSE Tumbleweed.

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1209954 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1209954#c1 --- Comment #1 from Johannes Kastl <opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de> --- Addendum: For non-automatic installations, setting the console and autoyast file via --extra-args="autoyast=file:////somename.xml textmode=1 console=ttyS0,115200n8" is needed, of course. But still, using "--graphics none" results in a non-working VM. Addendum 2: The boot entries from a working and a non-working system are almost the same. The only differences are - the UUID of the root partition and - "console=..." settings if the installation was done using this parameter (see above) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
