We've fixed a bunch of CD-ROM issues since comment#1, e.g. bug 652135.  Could
you retest?

Hi Markus,

I am using kvm-83-239 / kernel-2.6.18-269 . 

boot guest with 3 ide devices (one hard_drive, two cdroms)
index=0 for hard_drive , index=1 for the rhel3.9 installation iso, index=2 for ks.iso

rhel3.9-32 installer still cannot find  ks file . 

here's the cmd:

qemu-kvm -name 'rhel3.9-32' -monitor stdio -serial unix:'/172541-Q7Pt',server,nowait \
\
-drive file='/RHEL-3.9-32.qcow2',index=0,if=ide,media=disk,cache=none,format=qcow2 \
\
-net nic,vlan=0,model=e1000,macaddr='9a:d9:12:d5:10:e0' -net tap,vlan=0,ifname='rhel39-32' -m 4096 -smp 2,cores=1,threads=1,sockets=2 \
\
-drive file='/RHEL3.9-i386-DVD.iso',media=cdrom,index=1 \
\
-drive file='/ks.iso',media=cdrom,index=2 \
\
-cpu qemu64,+sse2 -soundhw ac97  -vnc :0 -rtc-td-hack -M rhel5.6.0 -boot d  -usbdevice tablet -no-kvm-pit-reinjection

That was quick, thanks!

What about RHEL-6, RHEL-5 and RHEL-4 guests?  Can they find their kickstart file?

they can load their own kickstart files happily :)
