#4561: Can't get Haiku to boot in Parallels ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: dfurrer | Owner: nobody Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: System | Version: R1/alpha1 Keywords: Haiku Parallels Boot | Blockedby: Platform: x86 | Blocking: ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment(by bonefish): Replying to [comment:4 stefan_s]: > If the virtual hard disk file is resized to 1 GB (from the initial 0.6 GB with the "Parallels Image Tool") then Haiku boots without problems. > > I think it has nothing to do with the ATA/IDE drivers, it looks like this issue comes from how Haiku is handling partitions on the disk, as it doesn't boot from SCSI nor IDE virtual disks unless the disk image is resized. After resizing, it boots from IDE (but not from SCSI) without any problems (apart from being extremely slow). Haiku doesn't support SCSI devices, so not being able to boot from those is quite expected. That aside, an update how it works with a recent Haiku version would be appreciated. Ideally including a syslog. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/4561#comment:5> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
