14:02:15 @ptribble @sommerfeld thanks, finding a VPS host with custom ISO support was a good suggestion 14:03:10 Hetzner requires opening a support ticket, providing them with the link to your ISO. They uploaded the latest OmniOS LTS for me this morning 14:03:32 Now trying to get it to work. I've booted into the installer, but it isn't seeing any disks (diskinfo) 14:03:47 I'm assuming this is not gonna work, but trying to investigate a bit more 14:05:03 My Hetzner VPS is an AMD variant (EPYC Rome v4). So I ordered and booted another one of those, in Debian, and also an Intel Xeon (Skylake) one to compare 14:06:30 Using lshw on both platforms tells me I'm dealing with a qemu virtual disk on an emulated SCSI interface 14:06:53 Maybe the OmniOS installer doesn't know how to deal with that? On the other hand I'm guessing this is really standard stuff 14:19:22 I just noticed it says driver=virtio-pci, maybe that's a problem 14:59:06 I have a Qemu line that boots (using Linux) if you want it. I'm not using virtio-pci. It sees the disk but I think I made the disk too small. It goes to the part where it says it's trying to make it bootable. 14:59:43 I'll try again with a 4g disk. 15:19:05 Older OmniOS ISOs didn't have the virtio drivers preinstalled, but I thought that had been corrected a while ago 15:31:33 Working. http://atr2.ath.cx/~jayjwa/omni-qemu.txt 15:43:44 jayjwa: I was able to install a working VM on my Fedora box at home too 15:44:18 jayjwa: but the problem described above is on a Hetzner VPS, I don't have control over the host there to issue any qemu commands 15:44:58 Another thing I noticed is that dladm output is empty too, so also no network interfaces found 15:46:00 https://man.omnios.org/man4d lists vioif and vioscsi for some virtio drivers 15:47:38 vioif and vioscsi are present in /kernel/drv/amd64, do I need to do anything to manually load those from shell in the installer? 15:47:56 If they're present, they'll be loaded 15:50:27 I noticed the manual references a "virtio" framework driver too, there is no "virtio" file in that directory in my install ISO 15:52:29 It should be at /kernel/misc/amd64/virtio I think 15:55:39 That's right, I can find it there. Well, then I'm stumped with my Hetzner attempt so far, moving on to one of the other suggestions 16:56:00 I must be doing something wrong, I ran into the exact same situation when trying Vultr 16:56:16 No disk or network interface visible 16:56:49 I uploaded omnios-r151054.iso, mounted that via the menu, then rebooted, in both cases 16:57:01 Maybe I need a different image? 19:16:00 The "igb" device shows under dladm show-phys as igb0 and I can ping it from the host.
