QEMU 0.8.2: FC6 Host: Fedora 7 Guest - Driver Problem

greno · #1 4th June 2007, 04:56 AM

On my FC6 Host under QEMU 0.,8.2 (std RPM pkg) when I try to install Fedora 7 from my DVD drive as a Guest it keeps saying that it needs a driver for this installation type (CDROM). I've tried a whole bunch of the choices in the list but it still keeps saying "no driver" and prompting me to select a driver from the huge list. Anyone know which driver will satisfy the install?

Well, after reading about all the Fedora 7 install problems from DVD/CD it seems like I've been bit by the same problem. That's why it is asking for a driver apparently. It cannot find the DVD/CDROM drive. I never had this problem with FC6 so they must have changed something about the install from CDROM code.

UPDATE: I just tried this is one of my real servers and same thing, can't find the CDROM drive. Looks like it's back to FC6 for now.
