A similar problem is also described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/144368 .
I'm also experiencing a similar problem: with qemu 0.9.0 my windows-xp image stalls with ~100% cpu-usage after the first "resolution-change", i.e. after the text-based windows boot menu and before usually the windows-logo appears on a black screen with the blue progress-bar. Reverting to 0.8.2 from feisty solved the problem. I do not get any messages on the console. How could I provide more information? -- Qemu VM fails during startup - Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154960 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
