Hi, I am trying to run Windows XP pro as a guest under kvm. The host system is Fedora 8. I have seen this behaviour with kvm-60 (as currently packaged for Fedora 8) and kvm-64 (using the rawhide package).
Essentially, I install XP Pro successfuly. When I then try and run the SP2 exe in order to update it to SP2, KVM always freezes at the point where is says "Running post install processes). The command line I am using is: /usr/bin/qemu-kvm -M pc -m 512 -smp 1 -monitor pty -localtime -no-acpi -boot c -hda /home/VM/WindowsXP.img -net nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:2a:1b:db,vlan=0 -net tap,fd=12,script=,vlan=0 -usb -usbdevice tablet -no-kvm-pit I have tried this both via virt-manager (i.e. connecting to the guest via vnc) and straight at the command line, and it happens for both. Host machine details: model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz kernel 2.6.24.3-50.fc8 (x86_64) When kvm hangs, there's no output produced on the console. What can I do to debug this further? Thanks, Jonathan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
