Hi,
I've created a 30GB disk image with qemu-img using qcow2 format, and I was able
to
install windows XP on that image using an ISO image (via libvirt). However when
booting again
the image I get a "Disk read error" from seabios, either by launching with
virsh or manually with qemu.
I'm able to boot on a Windows installation CDROM, and to access the repair
console, run chkdsk, so the disk image is there and alive. Mayby this is a
seabios issue, I'm not sure.
It is actually a known issue. I'm not sure if it's virt-manager or qemu
(or qemu-kvm which is also affected).
Try installing windows without virt-manager, using qemu directly from
command line. After install finishes, you will be able to "import" the
guest image into libvirt/virt-manager and it will run there just fine.
