I tried this on two different machines, and I am getting the same result. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open vm-install 2. Create a new virtual machine, select RHEL5 as the type, paravirt mode, default disk image file, and this installation URL: http://centos.mirror.facebook.net/5/os/x86_64/ 3.Complete the installation Actual Results: Once the OS is installed, the domU reboots, and never comes back. The loop device appears to be stuck at this point. If I do a "losetup -a" the command goes into D state and never returns. Expected Results: The domU should have rebooted. After the losetup hang, I sent a few commands to /proc/sysrq-trigger. The results are near the bottom. The loop0, umount, and losetup call traces are particularly interesting. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
