I let the host stay up for 90 minutes before loading kvm and starting a VM. On the first reboot it hangs at 'Starting udev'.
I added 'noapic' to the kernel boot options, and it boots fine. (Turns out I only added that to grub.conf in images that run a particular ap for which I am running performance tests.) I would like to know why I need the noapic option to get around this and the networking problem. Are there performance hits as a side effect? david Avi Kivity wrote: > david ahern wrote: >> With kvm-52 my 32-bit host running RHEL5.1 can start an RHEL 5 SMP guest >> only once.
