Installing CentOS 7 in a Guest Virtual Machine

Post by grep1514 » 2017/09/21 16:30:57

Hello,

I'm having issues getting a Guest Virtual Machine on CentOS to boot. It keeps crashing during the boot process.

I believe I have followed the correct steps for preparing the host for virtualization:
I installed the required software using the following line of commands:

Code: Select all

sudo yum install qemu-kvm libvirt virt-manager libvirt-client
I also ran:

Code: Select all

sudo yum group install "Virtualization Client"
and I then ran:

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl start libvirtd
and

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl enable libvirtd

Code: Select all

reboot
After installing and rebooting for the first time the installation proceeded to show the Install Centos and other install options normally then crashed (see images) this kept on happening. I performed the install again and still no luck.
I then ran the following line of command as I felt they may have been some packages missing:

Code: Select all

yum install kvm virt-manager libvirt virt-install qemu-kvm xauth dejavu-lgc-sans-fonts virt-viewer
Has anyone come across this before :? . I'm still learning so any help will be appreciated
