Hello all,

I have recently compiled kvm-36 in my Ubuntu Desktop 7.04 64 bits running 2.6.22. I can load the AMD module without problems. The issue started when I tried to install OpenBSD 4.1 on a Virtual Machine and It could not manage to write the MBR on disk. That should not happen. I also tried to install an Ubuntu desktop and server machines 32 bits and both of them got stuck on installation when configuring fdutils, I have no idea why this happens.

Eventually I get to install a Debian netinstall with the most basic configuration and it worked. These are the tests I have made. By the way I checked that the Ubuntu machines did write in my 4G feisty.img file.

Is anyone having problems with AMD64 and 2.6.22 kernels? Has anyone a hint about what could I do to get these machines running?

What was the last kvm version where this worked correctly?

I'm using two machines for testing KVM. In machine "A" KVM worked good. This is a Feisty 7.04 32 bits with 2.6.20-16 Ubuntu standard kernel with kvm installed apt way.

Is this an Intel or an AMD machine?
Intel - MacBook Pro
The machine "B" is the one I have mentioned before and It's using a 2.6.22 manually compiled kernel. It has been able to install only Debian netinstall. I would like to know if there is some kind of issue with kvm and this kernel or with AMD64.

It doesn't seem to be related to the machine being AMD. If you can provide an example where just one thing being different causes something to stop working, that would help us isolate the problem. Examples can be the host kernel, host cpu type, or kvm version.

The problem is that KVM does not install any Operative System (I forgot to say that I also tried to Install Windows XP 32 bits) excepting Debian netinstall (and this seems to be stable, no errors prompted till today). Therefore, I'm not able to send you any other feedback than this. Just saying fdutils makes it to get stuck in Ubuntu installation. How could I try to make KVM fail or prompt something? Could I launch kvm in "debug" mode?
Installation logs of these machines look like the normal ones.

Regards,

         Miguel
