https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216009 Bug ID: 216009 Summary: Floppy does not work under KVM Product: Base System Version: 10.3-RELEASE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: miguelcastellanos@hotmail.es CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org My KVM system uses the virtual floppy drive of KVM virtual machines to inject the network configuration into the guest operating system. This approach works fine on Linux and Windows Virtual Machines, however FreeBSD is not able to recognize the Floppy device. The following messages appears at dmesg: fdc0: <floppy drive controller (FDE)> port 0x3f2-0x3f5,0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on acpi0 fdc0: does not respond device_attach: fdc0 attach returned 6 fdc0: No FDOUT register! The corresponding qemu command at the Host operating system is called using the following parameters: -drive file=/tmp/vm.floppy,if=floppy,format=raw where /tmp/vm.floppy is a DOS formatter floppy image file. Thanks for your help and time. Miguel -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
