kvm/qemu virtual machine can't find hard drives
Hi all,
Debian 9 (Stretch) system
KDE Desktop
MSI970A-G43 motherboard
AMD FX 4350 processor - not overclocked
Ive been trying to get a virtual machine set up and have run into
problems with both virtualbox and kvm/qemu packages. I have a very messy
project (Elmer fem) and want things completely walled off from my
regular system. So I opted for a virtual machine.
The kvm/qemu package seems to install properly (no errors). But when I
try to install Debian 9 into it, the installer can't find my two hard
drives sda and sdb. It then ask me to pick from a long list of drivers.
I haven't been able to determine what the drivers should be for my
system. Sda is boot drive, 500 Gb WD160 and the there is a WD10 1 Tb,
ext4 blank drive. Both drives show up on Dolphin so they must be mounted.
Am I missing some library or something? Any help will be greatly
appreciated.
Gary R.
