HVM troubleshooting
|
||
===================
|
||
|
||
|
||
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:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash
|
||
|
||
BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 23s! [systemd-udevd:244]
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
To fix this:
|
||
|
||
1. Kill the HVM.
|
||
|
||
2. Start the HVM
|
||
|
||
3. Press “e” at the grub screen to edit the boot parameters
|
||
|
||
4. Find the /vmlinuz line, and edit it to replace “rhgb” with
|
||
“modprobe.blacklist=bochs_drm”
|
||
|
||
5. 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``.
|
||
|
||
2. Find the line which starts:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash
|
||
|
||
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
3. Remove this text from that line:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash
|
||
|
||
rhgb
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
4. Add this text to that line:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash
|
||
|
||
modprobe.blacklist=bochs_drm
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
5. Run this command:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash
|
||
|
||
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:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash
|
||
|
||
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:
|
||
|
||
.. code:: bash
|
||
|
||
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 :ref:`Suspend/resume Troubleshooting <user/troubleshooting/resume-suspend-troubleshooting:attached devices in windows hvm stop working on suspend\/resume>`.
