[pve-devel] qemu 1.0 : scsi boot not working anymore

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

I'm doing some test on qemu 1.0 , 

scsi disks does not seem to boot anymore.

scsi disk are working good. (i can mount them if i boot from ide or virtio).

Must be related to seabios


Not sure it's related but I found this message:

If I understand we need to pass lsi rom.

http://www.lsi.com/DistributionSystem/AssetDocument/files/support/ssp/sdms/Bios/lsi_bios.zip 
-> unzip -> boot with "-option-rom 8xx_64.rom"


I'll do more test today
