Kwm/qemu error in W11 installation

hi!
fresh opensuse TW installation in a AMD ryzen9 desktop.
I need a virtual machine for Windows11 so I followed this guide (https://sysguides.com/install-a-windows-11-virtual-machine-on-kvm). I tested it yet in the laptop some week ago and everything worked fine.
here when I launch the installation I have an error like this:

Unable to complete install: 'End of file while reading data: Input/output error'

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 72, in cb_wrapper
    callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/createvm.py", line 2008, in _do_async_install
    installer.start_install(guest, meter=meter)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/install/installer.py", line 695, in start_install
    domain = self._create_guest(
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateXML() failed')
libvirt.libvirtError: End of file while reading data: Input/output error

I googled it and there are not much result about opensuse (even zero) but I found something similar in an Archlinux forum dated 4 ago (suspected bug of Virtmanager or new kernel…).
It’s a little over to me, could you help me please?
thank you

@Gaiden Hi, I’d be wary of section 1.3, at least until you get it running. So the other install was on AMD hardware too?

Remote access I use spice, then can connect from any machine on the network with the flapak virt client…

Hi.
Sure, I noticed the line ti erase with an AMD CPU.
The laptop is AMD too

I tried in laptop: the old virtual machine with Win11 works fine but if I try to create a new VM I have the same error

@Gaiden and if you don’t do anything fro section 1.3, or just try with no changes does it work?

I tried and nope , It doesn’t work

@Gaiden and you can create other vm’s ok, just the windows one? There have been some qemu updates, wonder if it’s some sort of regression.

good to know it’s not just me, I’m in a similar scenario (although with an Intel CPU instead), and have been dealing with this for the past 3 or so days now.

I’m sorry, I didn’t understand… it is marked as “solved” but I stil have the same error (of course I updated and reboot everything)

Because the SR is in review. It takes some time until it shows up in Tumbleweed…
