Hi folks,

so has any one seen this weird behaviour, or is it me  ?

what I'm trying to do : Install an F10 virtual machine  via qemu-kvm . (from
the shell) . On a lenovo X200 running F10.

How : I used the below

  #sudo qemu-img create -f qcow2 f10.qcow2 10G
  #sudo qemu-kvm -m 1024 -boot d -cdrom /export/isos/F10-i686-Live.iso -hda
f10.qcow2 -localtime

Here,I did an install on hard drive, once all the packages are installed, it
fails to reboot(the screen blacks out). Now I try to invoke the VM via
#sudo qemu-kvm fedora10.qcow2

Result : the below error is what I'm thrown.

-----------------------------
could not detect stabilization, waiting 10 seconds

Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while

found volume group "volgroup00" using metadata type lvm2
unable to access resume device (/dev/VolGroup00/LogVo101)

mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3 : no such file or
diretory
-----------------------------------

Other Info:
(1) I booted into "single" user mode, and my  /etc/fstab says the below
---------------------------------------
[root at f10 /]# cat /etc/fstab

(2) KVM version: kvm-74-10.fc10.i386

Does anyone see anything weird here??
