For some reason acpi refuses to start on a Fedora 8 guest. The dmesg says at the very begining "no DMI BIOS year, acpi=force is required to enable ACPI". I then put acpi=force on the command line and it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. What I mean by works is sometimes it issues the acpi shutdown command and halts qemu and sometimes I have to kill the process, and all I see on dmesg is "Halting system...\nSystem halted." It seems like after I login to gnome in the guest (and it starts allocating memory for gnome) then open up a gnome-terminal and halt the guest it doesn't work but if I don't go into X at all it works fine.... odd.
Software in Host: kvm-53 linux-2.6.23.8 i686 and x86_64 Command line to start Guest: qemu-system-x86_64 -net nic -net tap -m 512 -smp 2 fedora8.img Software in Guest: Standard updated Fedora 8 image.
