Running .qcow2 in a HVM

[Neelix]

Hi,


I have received a .ova that I'm trying to run in a HVM. I have converted
the OVA to a .qcow file with Qemu. 

I now try to run the .qcow in a HVM with; qvm-start HVM_Name
--cdrom/--hdisk LOCATION_QCOW2:/././././..qcow2

Then the HVM pops up with: booting from Cd, and then shutsdown. 

Has anyone runned a .qcow2 successfully in Qubes?



Regards,


Neelix

Don't think you can, you have to convert it to raw/img instead.

Thanks, but its still not booting. I have still the same problem.

Make sure your kernel is set to none, and specify either --cdrom or
--hddisk, not both.
