So, are there any plans to backport this to Gutsy? It seems strange that a fix has been in Hardy and for quite some time now, and yet Gutsy still doesn't have it. I can hardly imagine that "stable users" want the old package, seeing as it doesn't work. -- qemu completely broken with current version of bochbios https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123185 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 123185] Re: qemu completely broken with current version of bochbios
When trying to install hardy server alpha3 into a qemu session on a amd64 host, it kept failing when trying to detect the virtual cdrom. Upgrading from gutsy's bochsbios-2.3-2etch1 to lenny's bochsbios-2.3.5-1 fixed the cdrom detection problem. -- qemu completely broken with current version of bochbios https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123185 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I had issues with a win2k image on a gutsy host. Installing http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/b/bochs/bochsbios_2.3.5-1ubuntu1_all.deb fixed my problem. (the package bochsbios_2.3+20070705-2ubuntu1_all.deb wasn't available anymore) Anyway, keep up the good work guys.

Yes, installing bochsbios from hardy ( http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/b/bochs/bochsbios_2.3+20070705-2ubuntu1_all.deb ) also made my XP-VM work again!

** Summary changed: - bochsbios too old for Windows XP with qemu + qemu completely broken with current version of bochbios ** Description changed: Qemu in Debian and Ubuntu are built to use BIOS images from the bochsbios package instead of the builtin ones. Unfortunately, the bochsbios images currently shipped with gutsy do not work with a Windows - XP guest in qemu on the amd64 architecture. The current Debian/testing - or Debian/unstable packages ship with a more recent BIOS and work fine. - So all that's needed to fix this bug is a new merge from Debian. + XP guest in qemu. A comment below states that they do not work with + certain Linux distributions either. The current Debian/testing or + Debian/unstable packages ship with a more recent BIOS and work fine.
