So, it doesn't seem to be able to create the "freshly started qemu VM"I think this is problem with detecting that the install has finished and quitting the install VM, not with starting the new one. For some reason, pexpect doesn't seem to be recognizing the "halted by root" message. Have you updated your host OS around the time when the problem started? I'm wondering if it might be suffering from kern/45187.
Hmmm, I don't know about kern/45187, but I _did_ update the host OS recently. I was previously running on 5.99.52, but recently updated to 5.99.55. The timing of the upgrade is consistent with the appearance of this problem.
So, "maybe" :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Paul Goyette | PGP Key fingerprint: | E-mail addresses: | | Customer Service | FA29 0E3B 35AF E8AE 6651 | paul at whooppee.com | | Network Engineer | 0786 F758 55DE 53BA 7731 | pgoyette at juniper.net | | Kernel Developer | | pgoyette at netbsd.org | -------------------------------------------------------------------------
