Hi,

currently in Xen unstable qcow boot support is broken if using the ioemu-remote tree (at least for HVM). The BIOS tells:
------------
Booting from Hard Disk...
Boot from Hard Disk failed: not a bootable disk
FATAL: No bootable device
-------------
As I saw a bug report on this yesterday on the list, I wonder if somebody has already started debugging on this?
It would be nice if people would share their observations on the list.

So far we can tell that it works when using the embedded ioemu and I vaguely remember that it worked with direct kernel boot (but currently cannot reproduce this) and PXE boot.

Regards,
Andre.
