Thought this sounded interesting...

Tried getting their qcow2 image running under proxmox but got stuck at "booting from hard disk..." prompt upon boot. Any thoughts on how to get this working?

Setup a new VM using Linux 3.2/2.6 OS (also tried Other OS), virtio disk of 20GB size, virt networking.

Overwrote original qcow2 file created by proxmox with downloaded OSV qcow2 image. Booted, but stuck at boot.

Thanks in advance for any help.

qemu-ifup.sh
Thanks in advance for any help.

qemu-img info shows a disk size of 10 G. I created a 10 G disk with same settings as yours, and a qemu-ifup.sh script as follows:
#!/bin/sh
echo SCRIPT, $1
brctl addif vmbr0 $1
ifconfig $1 up

Than I launched the vm with following command:
kvm -vnc :1 -gdb tcp::1234,server,nowait -m 2G -smp 2 -chardev stdio,mux=on,id=stdio -mon chardev=stdio,mode=readline,default -device isa-serial,chardev=stdio -drive file=osv-v0.01.qcow2,if=virtio,cache=unsafe -netdev tap,id=hn0,script=qemu-ifup.sh,vhost=on -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 -enable-kvm -cpu host,+x2apic

I got a chrooted-like access to the VM. It gets an IP address but you have to configure a password before you can access it with SSH.

Seems to be a Java container or something like that. It does not look like a virtualized OS.
