Alfredo,

We support installing StarlingX in VMs using either KVM or VirtualBox – see the instructions at https://docs.starlingx.io/deploy_install_guides/index.html.

We don’t have instructions for installing StarlingX in OpenStack VMs. To do this you would likely want to generate a qcow2 image (using KVM or VirtualBox). I can’t help you with this and based on the lack of response on the list I don’t think others have done this either. If you figure this out it would be great if you could share your findings with the community.

Hi all.

Any thoughts on this? Also has anyone ever tried this solution with StarlingX on Virtual Machine at all?

Cheers

Hi all.

For testing purposes we are trying to install a subcloud on a VM (Openstack to be precise) but we get a couple of errors as below. Booting from an ISO (STX 3.0) we get this

1. ERROR: Specified installation (sda) or boot (sda) device is invalid.

then I supposed the ISO is looking for a device *sda* .. so we fixed that but then another issue occurred and the error now is

2. Disk "" given in clearpart command does not exist.

Now I wonder if it is possible to install that on top of a VM and also what could it the fix for the second error.

Any idea/clue?

Cheers
