[Bug 955366] Re: Random KVM boot failure: "This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU"

 

IIRC Suse actually does some really clever on their graphics boot which
was actually really hard to handle in Xen guests. I kind of wonder if
that's an issue with the old kvm that was used here. Anyway, I don't
think this is an OpenStack bug per say.

Title:
  Random KVM boot failure: "This kernel requires the following features
  not present on the CPU"

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Oneiric, KVM, devstack.

  While booting identical images, I got the below error on boot from one
  of the instances.  Booting again from the same image does work.  I
  looked for any error messages in /var/log or anything different, I
  couldn't find anything.

  I'm guessing this is a KVM bug, though my google-fu is not up to
  finding any bug reports for KVM because I think this happens all the
  time whenever the image is mismatched.  That isn't the case here
  though, because booting another instance from the same image works.

  Error printed during boot:

  This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU:
  fpu msr pae cx8 cmov fxsr sse sse2
  Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU
