I don't usually post to devel lists because I tend to be entirely too
uneducated to really understand what's going on... but I'm just so close to
getting this setup that I would feel silly to sit around and wait for someone
else to fix it.
Using kvm-60 from debian/unstable I have been able to install and setup a win
2k3 server image... with the catch being I can only do so running the
option -no-kvm. As you can imagine, this bring a new meaning to the word
slow.
Without -no-kvm I get an empty black box and nothing else... this was the
same when booting off a debian install disk. There is all manner of CPU
activity, but no terminal output and no other indication of what's going
wrong. I tried running it with strace, which produced a very tight loop and
nothing else (reproduced below). I've scouered the archives and other
resources and found nothing similar to my problem, and aside waiting for
kvm-61 to hit unstable, I'm at a loss as to what to try next.
Here is the command I am using:
kvm -hda win2k3.img -m 256 -no-acpi -localtime -no-kvm
The system is an amd64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4600+ and I have confirmed r/w
access to /dev/kvm for the user running kvm. Not sure if there is anything
else that is helpful, but just let me know and I'll get it for you right
away.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide,
Sean
