Since QEMU commit ea96bc6 [1]: i386: drop FDC in pc-q35-2.4+ if neither it nor floppy drives are wanted the floppy controller is no longer implicit. Specify it explicitly on the command line if the machine type version is 2.4 or later. Note that libvirt's floppy drives do not result in QEMU implying the controller, because libvirt uses if=none instead of if=floppy. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1227880 [1] http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=ea96bc6
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
