RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

I was trying to setup an rhel-6 i686 qemu guest on my x86_64 rhel-6 laptop.  I walked through the menus and selected PXE install.  It just brought me to a screen that said 'Could not find a boot device'


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

[dzickus@dhcp-100-18-177 Downloads]$ rpm -qa|grep virt
libvirt-python-0.8.1-27.el6.x86_64
libvirt-client-0.8.1-27.el6.x86_64
virt-viewer-0.2.1-2.el6.x86_64
virt-manager-0.8.4-8.el6.noarch
libvirt-0.8.1-27.el6.x86_64
python-virtinst-0.500.3-7.el6.noarch

tried it twice and gave up

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run virt-manager
2. click on button to create new guest
3. use PXE as install source
  
Actual results:
doesn't PXE

Comment 3 Don Zickus 2010-10-20 14:36:44 UTC 
Can I re-open this and un-dup it, because mine is against RHEL-6 whereas the dup bz is against RHEL-5.  

The difference is, I don't expect the RHEL-5 to get fixed, but thought I might have an outside chance for RHEL-6.

Cheers,
Don

Sorry to re-dup it -- I had already cloned the bug for RHEL6, and the other bug has more information on Cole's plans.
