FYI, I just discovered that I can make my Solaris guest boot every
time in kvm by specifying an interactive boot at the boot prompt and
then just hand stepping through the default prompts. Presumably there
is a timing issue in the guest boot sequence which kvm is exposing
when running natively on m

boot in kvm. Completely random though it seems. Always boots if I add

Hi, I am inexperienced using QEMU and hoping somebody here can help me.
Some time ago I cloned a disk image of an old Solaris legacy system and was
able to successfully boot and use it within QEMU. Recently I upgraded my
host from i386 Ubuntu 12.04 to a new box running x86_64 Ubuntu 12.10. Now I
