Slackware64-current as a KVM host
by Panagiotis Nik from LinuxQuestions.org on (#54CJK)
Yesterday I wanted to install Slackware64-current in a KVM host. I grabbed the iso (thanks to alienbob) and I started the installation process.
When it was time to install lilo I chose expert and I changed the disk from sda to vda and I also added: bios = 0x80 max-partitions = 7.
Despite the above settings lilo was complaining with: "linux experimental device 0xfd00 needs to be defined"
I ended up to change the disk driver from virtio to ide but I would like to know what I was missing or doing wrong...
