Hi!
I'm just curious if this is something that could get fixed (or maybe danced around): @linux $ qemu-kvm -enable-kvm -cpu host -smp 2 -m 512 \ -hda openbsd-current.img \ -net nic,model=e1000,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \ -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no,downscript=no -curses iPXE v1.0.0-591-g7aee315 iPXE (http://ipxe.org) 00:03.0 C900 PCI2.10 PnP PMM+1FFC82A0+1FF882A0 C900 Booting from Hard Disk...

The guest OpenBSD tries to boot a -current bsd.mp. This works with other cpu types specified (like kvm32, or qemu32...), I just wanted to try out if the guest would be faster with the 'phenom' or 'host' cpu type. Has anyone experimented with this kind of or similar setup? Daniel -- LÉVAI Dániel PGP key ID = 0x83B63A8F Key fingerprint = DBEC C66B A47A DFA2 792D 650C C69B BE4C 83B6 3A8F
