rawqcow2

Qemu-imgcreate –f raw /home/main.raw 30G

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

可惜第一個虛擬機器就失敗了。 命令格式如下，採用純文字安裝模式：

virt-install \
--name=ubuntu-13.10-vm9 \
--ram=512 --vcpus=2 \
-f /home/kvm/ubuntu64.qcow2 \
--cdrom /home/ubuntu-13.10-desktop-i386.iso \
--network bridge=br0 \
--extra-args='console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 serial'
 
 、
--force

從輸出來看，建立配置檔案成功了，可是停在下面之後再也沒有console輸出。

virsh list已經顯示該虛擬機器在執行：

檢視virt-install日誌檔案 $HOME/.virtinst/virt-install.log如下：

檢視qemu日誌，/var/log/libvirt/qemu：

cat ubuntu-13.10-vm9.log
2013-12-30 17:03:42.005+0000: starting up
char device redirected to /dev/pts/2 (label charserial0)
...

從上面的日誌來看，應該是成功將輸出重定向到了虛擬機器串列埠，可是在主機上看不到。於是網了搜尋了一下，發現 KVM Guest installed from console. But how to get to the guest’s console? 比較符合我這個情況。於是立即改為 --extra-args='console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 serial'， 還是不行！

於是將 cdrom 改為 location ，竟然提示找不到安裝檔案，莫非安裝檔案有問題？於是換了一個我用過的 Ubuntu 版本，還是提示找不到安裝檔案。

starting install...

 successful.  If it was, you can restart your domain
 by running 'virsh start ubuntu-13.10-vm8'; otherwise, please
 restart your installation.
ERROR    Could not find an installable distribution at '/home/os'

這就奇怪了。後來想可能這2個 Ubuntu 的安裝檔案可能不支援文字模式的安裝，於是又換了一個CentOS的最新安裝ISO，一試果然成功！

硬體初始化都沒有問題，裝到這裡，以為一切將會順利。哪想到當真正安裝的時候又報“ Unable to find devices of the type needed for this installation type ."的錯，網上查了一下，一般都是安裝映象或者硬碟驅動器有問題。難道又要卡在這裡？

那就只剩最後一條路，使用VNC圖形介面安裝。

Please install the 'virt-viewer' package.

這下又回到 CentOS/Ubuntu: KVM安裝歷程 遇到的問題，即網路防火牆的原因，很多軟體沒法通過yum或apt-get自動下載。

嘗試了手工下載virt-viewer 包來安裝，可是dependent的包實在太多，萬一其中的包有很多dependent的包，工作量就是天文數字。這條路不通。

下一步計劃就是放棄在公司電腦折騰，用回自己電腦吧！這下工作就簡單多了，大把參考文件。
