As a consequence, since the tools are apparently relying on such alias, we're getting this, as soon as one tries to start a Xen (HVM) VM:qemu-system-i386: unsupported machine type: "xenfv" Use -machine help to list supported machines Reinstate the alias and let it point to the only Xen machine we still have.
