Package: qemu
Version: 0.12.3+dfsg-4
Severity: normal
Hi,
I've created a 30GB disk image with qemu-img using qcow2 format, and I was able
to
install windows XP on that image using an ISO image (via libvirt). However when
booting again
the image I get a "Disk read error" from seabios, either by launching with
virsh or manually with qemu.
I'm able to boot on a Windows installation CDROM, and to access the repair
console, run chkdsk, so the disk image is there and alive. Mayby this is a
seabios issue, I'm not sure.
Additional information:
* seabios version: 0.5.1-2
* command used to launch the image:
qemu -net user -net nic -smb /tmp -m 512 -hda /opt/kvm/xp_sp3_py26.img
-usbdevice tablet -k fr -cdrom
/opt/MSDN/fr_windows_xp_professional_n_with_service_pack_3_x86_cd_x14-92440.iso
-boot menu=on
Any help welcome.
