Hi,
On my way to run centOS 6.5 on OpenStack I found the cloud images at
http://cloud.centos.org/centos/6.5/devel/
and while the corresponding image for centOS 7 seems to work fine, I still need the older version for some legacy application, but I cannot find a way to run the images provided in that directory.
Especially I'm looking at http://cloud.centos.org/centos/6.5/devel/CentOS-6.5-x86_64-GA-03.img.gz, but as well uploading the unzppied .img file to OpenStack as image and trying to boot an instance with it, as well as runinng it locally with
qemu-system-i386 CentOS-6.5-x86_64-GA-03.img
both give me the same error - "Boot failed - not a bootable disk"
Any idea what I could be doing wrong / should be doing to get it booting?
Thanks, Henning
Unless one of the devel members responds, the cloud instance <All our conversations take place on the CentOS-Devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ) and we are on irc at #centos-devel on irc.freenode.net> info seems to mention to post to the CentOS-Devel mailing list or on irc at #centos-devel on irc.freenode.net

Well, yeah, I actually read that a few days ago now that you remind me, but just prior posting this mail I've been somewhere looking for a solution and some wiki poage mentioned that this list is the place to talk virt and cloud stuff...
Sorry for bothering, thanks for the pointer - I'm reposting to dev :)
