[Bug 569530] Re: vmbuilder create ubuntu-kvm directory even when using --raw

[Whit Blauvelt]

Not sure if this is a related bug, or just a lack of documentation, but:

vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --suite lucid --flavour virtual --arch amd64  -o
--libvirt qemu:///system

produces an ubuntu-kvm directory with, in this instance:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 396754944 2010-08-08 21:20 tmpEs8Mq4.qcow2
-rwx---r-x 1 root root        67 2010-08-08 21:21 run.sh

where run.sh consists of:

#!/bin/sh

exec kvm -m 128 -smp 1 -drive file=tmpEs8Mq4.qcow2 "$@"

and trying to run run.sh (which AFAIK is an undocumented file here)
produces:

pci_add_option_rom: failed to find romfile "pxe-rtl8139.bin"
init kbd.
^CCould not open SDL display

(that last line after a control-C)

Is run.sh something that should be a final product? Or has vmbuilder got
itself into an error state and quit in the middle somewhere, leaving
that tmp*.qcow2 file and the run.sh which can't run it, and that would
disappear if vmbuilder completed its job without error?
