Dear List, Natalia Portillo noticed that XP_64 refused to install due to lack of APICs. Filip Navara proposed an initial patch, and Fabribe Bellard proposed :
> I can include the patch with a specific option to enable it. The > option will disapear when the hack will be known to be stable. Fabrice then commited (in July) three APIC-related patches ; the current (0.7.2) documentation does not mention APICs. I was therefore under the impression that this was a solved issue. However, trying to use qemu-system-x86_64 (with kqemu) on an AMD64 system (running under Ubuntu AMD 64 with a hand-compiled (with gcc-3.4.5) kernel) to test XP Pro_64 leads to no installation : the system complains that it can see no APIC and cannot continue. Is there an (undocumented) option to enable APIC emulation in this configuration (qemu-system-x86-64 + kqemu running under Linux 2.6.12 64 bits) ? Or did I hit an unsupported case ?
