Now I realized that I needed to use 32-bit Linux to build the bios.bin (i.e. BIOS-bochs-latest) in bochs. As long as I used x86-64 Linux to build bios.bin, the resulting binary had a problem, as I reported previously.
With this very simple patch, I was able to install and run 32-bit Vista on KVM (almost the latest tree) on the 64-bit host. Thanks Qing for debuging this. I believe this should work for Qemu as well.
