Hi @kmw0410, QEMU hasn't been published in our repository yet, but there were previous discussions about adding it. You might find helpful insights in the comment on issue #6152.

Are you using rr or Arc? What is the Proxmox version number?

Generally, these two bootloaders will automatically load the built-in driver after startup, and the system will have the file: /dev/vport1p1. If it does not appear, it is useless to continue to load the driver from the package.

This requires more test samples to find the cause.

The current suggestion is: delete the serial port added when the virtual machine is created. Try it to see if it works.

@mreid-tt, sorry for the late reply
i'll refer to it

[kmw0410]

@tbc0309
i'm using this:

• Loader : tinycore redpill(m-shell)
• Proxmox : 8.2.7

despite the presence of /dev/vport1p1, it still doesn't seem to work

[tbc0309]

ok，I will test later

Check this options. Do not restart vm !!!! Stop it then start VM, it working.
