[Bug 256416] Re: Hardy installer in VM fails with fatal grub error
It seems the RIP is caused by a bug in the recent kvm release. In this
case, kvm-72. I've put a fixed hardy kvm-72 in my PPA for anyone that
wants it.
It is documented with a work-around/fix at:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/20012/focus=20235
which is a simple patch to ensure 64-bit registers are saved for
SYSENTERs:
