I have tried to boot previous kernel 2.6.32-10, but the same results - couldn't open qemu image

The images are qcow2 format.

What is the command line you're using to launch your KVM's?

I am using virsh:

# virsh start <kvm_session>

That worked fine until upgrade.

I upgraded from Karmic to Lucid alpha 3 and cannot reproduce your problem. virsh start works fine for my old VMs.

I cannot reproduce this problem either, with KVM.

There may well still be a problem with virsh or libvirt. I'm going to move the bug over to virsh for now. Thanks!

affects: qemu-kvm (Ubuntu) → libvirt (Ubuntu)

There is nothing in the dmesg suggesting it is AppArmor.

hernad-b-out-ba, did you disable the AppArmor or the AppArmor security driver in libvirt?
