Sorry to be a bother, but I’m hitting a wall here, and my google-fu is not strong enough apparently. I’m trying to reinstall a Home Assistant VM on my server, (It’s been a while, and I have no idea how I did it originally). Running: virt-install --name haos --description "Home Assistant OS" --os-variant=generic --ram=16384 --vcpus=4 --disk /home/chris/haos_ova-12.4.qcow2,bus=scsi --controller type=scsi,model=virtio-scsi --import --graphics none --boot uefi

Returns:

`WARNING KVM acceleration not available, using ‘qemu’ WARNING Using --osinfo generic, VM performance may suffer. Specify an accurate OS for optimal results.

Starting install… ERROR internal error: Could not run ‘/usr/bin/swtpm_setup’. exitstatus: 1; Check error log ‘/home/chris/.cache/libvirt/qemu/log/haos-swtpm.log’ for details. Domain installation does not appear to have been successful. If it was, you can restart your domain by running: virsh --connect qemu:///session start haos otherwise, please restart your installation.`

Checking the ‘haos-swtpm.log’ shows repeated entries of:

I gather that it seems to be a issue with the vTPM, but I usually deal in containers, so this is all new on me.

Thanks in advance.

    What motherboard are you running?

    Also, are you sure your user has the right permissions to access libvirt assets? Do you get the same error if you run as sudo?
