I do not know if this is a bug in qemu or the linux kernel sym53c8xx module (I haven't had the opportunity to test with anything other than Linux at the moment) but if one starts an qemu instance with -m 4096 and larger the scsi emulated disk fails in the Linux guest.
If booting any install cd the /dev/sda is seen as only 512B in size and if booting an ubuntu 8.04-amd64 with the secondary drive as scsi it is seen with the correct size but one cannot read not write the partition table. Is there anyone out there that could test say a Windows image on scsi with 4GB or more of RAM and see if it works or not? If so it could be the linux driver that is faulty. /Henrik Holst -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
