The shortcut keys of installing Suse

When installing Suse, you can use shortcut keys(Alt + underscore alphabet). For example:

You can use ALt + O to agree the attention.

When follow How to assign devices with VT-d in KVM tutorial in KVM site, you may encounter qemu-system-x86_64complains:

......No IOMMU found.  Unable to assign device......

The root cause is the KVM_DEVICE_ASSIGNMENT configuration option is deprecated, and the code in kernel KVM part is like this:

#ifdef CONFIG_KVM_DEVICE_ASSIGNMENT
    case KVM_CAP_IOMMU:
        r = iommu_present(&pci_bus_type);
        break;
#endif

So you should use VFIO feature instead.

If you still to want to use KVM_DEVICE_ASSIGNMENT feature, please rebuild the kernel with KVM_DEVICE_ASSIGNMENT option on.
