I'm running a 32-bit Windows 2003 Server guest on a 64-bit Xubuntu Feisty host (Core 2 Duo 5600) using kvm-35 with no problem: don't despair, it can be done =). > In both cases the build was configured as follows: > > ./configure --prefix=/opt/kvm-35 --qemu-cc="/usr/bin/gcc-3.[34]" > > Note that I am unclear as to when to use the --with-patched-kernel > option (wasn't sure if this was just for when you wanted kvm baked > directly into the kernel -- would love clarification on exactly what a > "patched kernel" is). --with-patched-kernel simply uses the kernel modules bundled with your kernel (since 2.6.20) instead of using the modules bundled with the kvm release. Most of the times, the modules bundled with the release are newer than the ones in the kernel, with the (only?) exception of using git repos directly (for example kvm.git). > been doing.

However, try removing 'no-acpi' from your command line. Right now I'm not using 'no-acpi' on my 2003 command line: qemu-system-x86_64 -m 512 -no-reboot -localtime -net nic,model=rtl8139 stuff/qemu/2003.img -net user And when I add it I get the same unhandled VM exit as you.
