Original Pull Request: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/pull/225

State: closed
Merged: No


if user is building a minimal kernel, they probably dont want acpi, but there's a gotcha that microvm doesn't announce devices then, unless you specify -no-acpi

i don't know if this maybe should be warning in the code itself, but in the meantime just adding -no-acpi in the docs helps avoid that
