Acronis Bootable iso stopped working on 2.2

[sidmax]

I've noticed today that the bootable iso of Acronis doesn't work on ProxmoxVE 2.2 (it boots from the iso and immediately reboots)

I've tried both a recent version (acronis 2013) and an older version (2010) that I've used many times under proxmox/kvm.

I've tested the 2010 version under Pve 2.1-14 and it works as expected so the problem is just on 2.2.

UPDATE:
---------

Successfully booted after downgrading pve-qemu-kvm from 1.2-7 to 1.1-8

I have the same problem. I tried a few versions of Acronis True Image bootable iso but it continues rebooting on startup.
How did you downgraded pve-qemu-kvm from 1.2-7 to 1.1-8?
How can I do that? (I mean which commands should I use to do that).
Thank you.

apt-get install pve-qemu-kvm=1.1-8

I'm having this issue too, and I do use acronis a fair bit (workstation 11.5 bootable) to image machines and then either throw them into proxmox or just test things out in proxmox.

The above mentioned fixed the issue, but if a future version of proxmox could fix this, that would be sweet sauce ^_^

Thanks for the tip to fix!

The problem persist with pve-qemu-kvm_1.3-10

-> Acronis boot CD just freeze on Loader. (screen display ok, but no mouse or keyboard control)

Also as another temporary fix, you can create a Win PE boot disk with the main program (Acronis workstation in my case) and that boots OK.

Downgrade instruction had a typo - it should be:

apt-get install pve-qemu-kvm_1.1-8

Keep checking for working newer pve-qemu-kvm releases > v1.3-10 at:
http://download.proxmox.com/debian/dists/squeeze/pve/binary-amd64/

is there any chance that this will work in future with the actual pve-qemu-kvm version? (cause i need acronis quite often)
what are the cons if i downgrade to 1.1-8?
thanks in advance

edit: i tried it with 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 iso images as well as the acronis echo server

I added a very small SATA disk to the VM, and it seemed to work for me. All my other disks were IDE.
