ACS and openSUSE

[tdtmusic2]

Hi guys. Anyone here has a working cloud image source of openSUSE that works with ACS? In my case the 15.6 Leap Nocloud image does not boot, if I look at the console there's a blinking _ after Booting from Hard Drive. I tried to change the controller on the instance but it's the same. And if I think about it I had the same problem with some other cloud images, I think Arch or FreeBSD.

@tdtmusic2 Are you able to boot the cloudimages directly on the hypervisor ?

@tdtmusic2 i have just tried opensuse 15.6

you need to select the installation option once the boot screen appears

You did not read my post. I can't get to any installation screen, it stops at the "BIOS" booting screen, with a blinking cursor.

Could you please provide more details of your environment

1. Cloudstack version
2. Hypervisor version details ( KVM/Vmware)

Sure. CS is 4.19.1.2, using it with KVM.

I have tried with both 7.2.0 and 8.2.0 release of qemu-kvm , but unable to reproduce the issue , the opensuse iso boots up fine

Could you please provide the agent.log ( /var/log/cloudstack/agent/agent.log) to investigate further

I think you're using the desktop version of openSUSE. I specifically said the cloud image has this issue, in my case is openSUSE-Leap-15.6.aarch64-1.0.1-NoCloud-Build1.86.qcow2.

Hi @tdtmusic2

I just tried it with "openSUSE-Leap-15.6.x86_64-1.0.1-NoCloud-Build1.92.qcow2 " and I was able to boot

https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Cloud:/Images:/Leap_15.6/images/openSUSE-Leap-15.6.x86_64-1.0.1-NoCloud-Build1.92.qcow2

Mine is like this.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm blind...I was using the aarch64 image instead of x86_64. Sorry for the confusion :(
