1 I know this is of topic, but this is one of the few lists where you mostly get a competent answer.

3 I have a small problem with libvirt / qemu. I have created a guest (also gentoo) on a gentoo hosts and when I start it from the command-line the guests starts OK, but when I start the guest through libvirt with "virsh start" I get "Booting from Hard Disk...
4 Boot failed: not a bootable disk
5 No bootable device"
6
7 This is the command-line I use to start the guest (which works)
8 "cd /var/lib/kvm/Wilmer; /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 --enable-kvm \
9 -net nic,vlan=1,model=rtl8139,macaddr=DE:ED:BE:EF:01:03 -net tap,vlan=1,ifname=qtap13,script=no,downscript=no \
10 -net nic,vlan=3,model=rtl8139,macaddr=DE:ED:BE:EF:03:03 -net tap,vlan=3,ifname=qtap33,script=no,downscript=no \
11 -m 2048 -k de-ch -vnc :3 -daemonize \
12 Wilmer.qcow2"
13

15 The libvirt XML-file was created using "virsh domxml-from-native qemu-argv" and this is the result of that conversion:
