I use fedora 23 with kernel 4.2.5 to run a win10 vm using qemu/kvm with vga passthrough (vfio).

I purchased a raid pci card, the problem is got is the compatibility for the driver stop at kernel 4.0.4. Is it possible to downgrade the kernel to install the driver?

If I do will I still be able to run my virtual machine without changing everything?

I have just installed virt-manager in Fedora 19. I have looked into the /etc/init.d directory but I can't find any init scripts for libvirt.

Is libvirt using systemd, and if so, how do I start it?

Each time I turn off Fedora 24, I get the following message about 50 times printed in the console:

Kernel not configured for semaphores (System V IPC). Not using udev synchronisation code.
device-mapper: remove ioctl on fedora_alpha-root failed: Device or resource busy Command failed

What does that mean?
