Package: qemu
Version: 0.10.6-1
Followup-For: Bug #411814

I'm asking to reopen this bug because the symptoms are quite the same.

I'm using the version of kqemu and dependencies from squeeze, although
the base system is lenny.

Trying to install debian into a qemu image using the lenny netinst disk
image some parts of the installation (disk formatting and
package installation) go veru slow, and eventually dumps core (segmentation
fault). This only happens when using qcow images.

When using images in raw format everything goes fast.

I suspect this is a problem related to disk write access in qcow format.

For your information, I'm creating images this way:

qemu-img -f qcow lenny-base.qcow 10G

and running qemu this way:

sudo qemu -m 256 -net nic,vlan=1,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:51 -net tap,vlan=1 
-cdrom debian-502a-i386-netinst.iso -boot d lenny-base.qcow

I have tried also debian-501-i386-netinst.iso
I have tried also qemu version 0.10.4-1 with same results.

Having 1G memory, 2G swap and at least 20G free disk space.
