We currently use the default interface (aka IDE) to attach the hard disk image to the VM. IDE support has bitrotted on RHEL8 kernels and can't be enabled. Add an option to attach using the newer and more appropriate virtio interface instead. Signed-off-by: Lorenz Bauer <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Kornilios Kourtis <[email protected]>
Remove debugging statement erroneously introduced in commit 06c67d1. Signed-off-by: Kornilios Kourtis <[email protected]>
This will be used in a subsequent patch for configuring kernels fetched outside of lvh. Signed-off-by: Kornilios Kourtis <[email protected]>
lvh assumes that kernels can be build by fetching them with git. This, however, is not always possible. centos/rhel kernels are an example of this. It would still be nice to use lvh to configure these kernels. This patch adds a raw_configure command that allows just that. The command accepts a source directory for the kernel, and an optional kernel name. The latter is used for kernel-specific options as defined in the configuration.
