Virt Install with Ramfb Video Mode fails on Alma Linux 9 ARM64
by excelsi from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6MGBJ)
I have a problem to configure a VM with ramfb video mode (which is the only possible working one that i can select in my scenario) on a Alma Linux 9 ARM64 VM:
Code:[azureuser@ALMA-ARM64 VM]$ sudo virt-install --name W25-A64 --ram 4096 --boot uefi --os-variant unknown --disk /VM/W25-A64 --cdrom /VM/26085-ARM.iso --graphics vnc,listen=0.0.0.0 --noautoconsole --video ramfb --cpu max
Starting install...
ERROR internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: 2024-05-01T17:52:47.870776Z qemu-kvm: -device {"driver":"ramfb","id":"video0"}: Parameter 'driver' expects a dynamic sysbus device type for the machine
Domain installation does not appear to have been successful.
If it was, you can restart your domain by running:
virsh --connect qemu:///system start W25-A64
otherwise, please restart your installation.I have researched already but nothing realy found what i can try here.
Any help appreciated, Thanks!
P.S.: If anyone would like to try, the base is the Alma 9 ARM64 VM hosted on Azure ;-)
