FireBoxV Kernel Panic on KVM
Hello,
I am able to deploy the .qcow2 FireBoxV image on my device and it boots normally.
But when trying to create an instance in an OpenStack KVM based cloud, it does not boot.
The instance keeps rebooting every 30 seconds and I get the same following error :
kernel panic not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.14.83 #1
I was wondering what might be the problem...
Any ideas ?
Thanks !

Non supported KVM maybe?
Can I modify the image so it can be compatible ?
By changing the drivers for example...
I think this would be a question for WG support.
We do support KVM for Fireware 12.6.2 and better

Based on your error, it looks like one of the partitions, (likely sysa) is not mounted. Please check what you did against this guide:

If that's not working, I'd suggest opening a support case so we can get more details on what's gone wrong.
