| Issue | Likely Cause | Solution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | VM fails to boot (kernel panic) | Insufficient RAM or missing CPU features | Allocate at least 6GB (8GB preferred). Enable VT-x/AMD-V and nested virtualization. | | Interfaces not showing up | QEMU/VirtIO driver mismatch | In KVM, ensure model=virtio. In VMware, use VMXNET3. | | Licensing errors / "fullk9" not active | Wrong image or EVE-NG rename error | Confirm filename is exactly xrv9k-fullk9-x-7.1.1.qcow2. The "fullk9" is embedded – no license file needed. | | Slow console or SSH lag | CPU oversubscription | Dedicate 4 physical cores (not threads) to the VM. Disable power saving on host. | | Commit fails: "Not enough storage" | Small default disk (8GB) | The QCOW2 expands. Add a secondary virtual disk for logs: ``` disk add /dev/sdb
