[OmniOS-discuss] qemu: too many IDE bus

[Nahum Shalman]

I would think that depending on how you're invoking QEMU (it looked like
the full qemu command line was truncated from the output you pasted) it'
allocating one of the 4 available IDE slots to a virtual CDROM. Depending
on your guest OS you could consider using a different virtual controller
for the virtual disks, or you might be able to tell qemu not to allocate a
virtual cdrom drive.

If you want to share the full qemu command line being invoked I'm happy to
take a quick look at it to see if I can figure out a simple way to improve
it.

(I suspect that "cd /KVM_Machines/JDN && bash -x ./JDN01_Start-VM.sh" will
provide the information needed)
