Those are redundant, and yaml parser strips them in fact. By removing them, loading and saving yaml file without any change indeed produce the same output. This is useful for prepare_for_translation.py script (which adds lang and ref tags) - to produce only change that indeed was made.

## HVM pauses on boot, followed by kernel error
|
|
|
|
The HVM may pause on boot, showing a fixed cursor.
|
|
After a while a series of warnings may be shown similar to this:
|
|
|
|
`
|
|
BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 23s! [systemd-udevd:244]
|
|
`
|
|
|
|
To fix this:
|
|
|
|
1. Kill the HVM.
|
|
1. Start the HVM
|
|
1. Press "e" at the grub screen to edit the boot parameters
|
|
1. Find the /vmlinuz line, and edit it to replace "rhgb" with "modprobe.blacklist=bochs_drm"
|
|
1. Press "Ctrl-x" to start the HVM
|
|
|
|
If this solves the problem then you will want to make the change permanent:
|
|
|
|
1. Edit the file `/etc/default/grub`.
|
|
1. Find the line which starts:
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
1. Remove this text from that line:
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
rhgb
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
1. Add this text to that line:
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
modprobe.blacklist=bochs_drm
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
1. Run this command:
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
grub2-mkconfig --output=/boot/grub2/grub.cfg
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
The HVM should now start normally.
|
|
|
|
## Can't start an OS in an HVM / "Probing EDD (edd=off to disable!... ok" message
|
|
|
|
If you see a screen popup with SeaBios and 4 lines, last one being `Probing EDD (edd=off to disable!... ok`, then enter the following command from a `dom0` prompt:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
qvm-prefs <HVMname> kernel ""
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## HVM crashes when booting from ISO
|
|
|
|
If your HVM crashes when trying to boot an ISO, first ensure that ` qvm-prefs <HVMname> kernel` is empty, as shown above.
|
|
If this doesn't help, then disable memory balancing and set the minimum memory to 2GB.
|
|
|
|
You can disable memory-balancing in the settings, under the “Advanced” tab.
|
|
|
|
To give the VM a RAM of 2GB, open a terminal in `dom0` and enter:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
qvm-prefs <HVMname> memory 2000
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Attached devices in Windows HVM stop working on suspend/resume
|
|
|
|
After the whole system gets suspended into S3 sleep and subsequently resumed, some attached devices may stop working. To know how to make the devices work, see [Suspend/resume Troubleshooting](/doc/suspend-resume-troubleshooting/#attached-devices-in-windows-hvm-stop-working-on-suspendresume).
