科技常识：ubuntu下kvm 命令行安装64位ubuntu报"Couldn't find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree."的问题分析

今天小编跟大家讲解下有关科技常识：ubuntu下kvm 命令行安装64位ubuntu报"Couldn't find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree."的问题分析，相信小伙伴们对这个话题应该也很关注吧，小编也收集到了有关科技常识：ubuntu下kvm 命令行安装64位ubuntu报"Couldn't find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree."的问题分析的相关资料，希望小伙伴会喜欢也能够帮助大家。

1.安装ubuntu时使用的virt-install的配置：

virt-install \--name test4 \--ram 1024 \--disk path=/data/01_ubuntu/ubuntu4.img,size=6 \--vcpus 1 \--hvm \--os-type linux \--network network=default \--os-variant ubuntuquantal \--graphics none \--console pty,target_type=serial \--location /data/00_osfile/ubuntu-16.04.1-server-amd64.iso \--extra-args 'console=ttyS0,115200n8 serial'

报错如下：

ERROR Couldn't find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree.Domain installation does not appear to have been successful.

通过查资料发现，virt-install可以开debug模式的，加入--debug选项即可

2.virt-install的debug模式得到的结果：

[Wed, 30 Nov 2016 11:16:07 virt-install 26900] DEBUG (urlfetcher:268) local hasFile: Couldn't find /var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinstmnt.xPL9y1/current/images/MANIFEST[Wed, 30 Nov 2016 11:16:07 virt-install 26900] DEBUG (urlfetcher:89) Fetching URI: /var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinstmnt.xPL9y1/install/netboot/version.infoRetrieving file version.info... | 58 B 00:00:00 [Wed, 30 Nov 2016 11:16:07 virt-install 26900] DEBUG (urlfetcher:1164) Didn't find any known codename in the URL string[Wed, 30 Nov 2016 11:16:07 virt-install 26900] DEBUG (urlfetcher:511) Detected distro name=Ubuntu osvariant=linux[Wed, 30 Nov 2016 11:16:07 virt-install 26900] DEBUG (urlfetcher:268) local hasFile: Couldn't find /var/lib/libvirt/boot/virtinstmnt.xPL9y1/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/linux

这里就可以看出问题了，明明是64位的操作系统，为什么去找./install/netboot/ubuntu-install/i386/linux的路径

我们去看看iso文件中正确的路径是什么：

[root@11.102 01_ubuntu]$mount /data/00_osfile/ubuntu-16.04.1-server-amd64.iso /mntmount: /dev/loop2 is write-protected, mounting read-only[root@11.102 01_ubuntu]$ls /mnt/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/linux /mnt/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/linux

基本确定，如果将路径的i386改为amd64，virt-install安装就没有问题。

debug模式剩余的log：

3.修改virt-manager代码：

通过上面的报错，发现virt-manager使用python写的！正好想看什么源码来自，这个正好！

通过对virt-manager这一项目一步步debug，找到问题：

[root@11.102 ~]$grep -n -A22"class DebianDistro"/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/urlfetcher.py1076:class DebianDistro(Distro):1077- # ex. http://ftp.egr.msu.edu/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-i386/1078- # daily builds: http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/1079- name ="Debian"1080- urldistro ="debian"1081- os_variant ="linux"1082-1083- def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):1084- Distro.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)1085-1086- # Pull the tree's arch out of the URL text1087- self._treeArch = 'i386'1088- for pattern in ["^.*/installer-(\w+)/?$",1089-"^.*/daily-images/(\w+)/?$"]:1090- arch = re.findall(pattern, self.uri)1091- if arch:1092- self._treeArch = arch[0]1093- break1094-1095- self._url_prefix = 'current/images'1096- self._installer_dirname = self.name.lower() +"-installer"1097- self._set_media_paths()

发现基于Debian的系统，__init__方法中self._treeArch初始化时是i386，估计是virt-manager读取ubuntu的iso文件时，出了什么问题，没读出该系统是x86_64类型，将该值改为amd64,就可以了。

再次运行virt-install，成功进入ubuntu安装界面！

附：CentOS命令行使用KVM安装64位ubuntu报"Couldn't find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree."的解决办法

grep -n -A21 'class DebianDistro' /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/OSDistro.py 命令可以查看DebianDistro类的__init__方法

[root@2 virtinst]$grep -n -A21 'class DebianDistro' /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/virtinst/OSDistro.py892:class DebianDistro(Distro):893- # ex. http://ftp.egr.msu.edu/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-i386/894- # daily builds: http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/895-896- name ="Debian"897- os_type ="linux"898-899- def __init__(self, uri, arch, vmtype=None, scratchdir=None):900- Distro.__init__(self, uri, arch, vmtype, scratchdir)901- if uri.count("installer-i386"):902- self._treeArch ="i386"903- elif uri.count("installer-amd64"):904- self._treeArch ="amd64"905- else:906- self._treeArch ="i386"907-908- if re.match(r'i[4-9]86', arch):909- self.arch = 'i386'910-911- self._installer_name = self.name.lower() +"-"+"installer"912- self._prefix = 'current/images'913- self._set_media_paths()

改变__init__方法里的else：条件下面的一行，将"i386"改为"amd64"即可

- self._treeArch = 'i386'+ self._treeArch = 'amd64'
