yes, it is.

I'm pretty sure about that, because:
* It hangs while there are kernel messages scrolling by.
* The exactly same VM boots just fine, together with network
and everthing, with the 2.6.26-something kernel that I didn't
remove from it yet. It's just a matter of selecting 2.6.26
in the grub menu to get the machine to boot to full
operationality, and the 2.6.32 hangs always at exactly the
same point with this 'clocksource unstable' message.

That's how I found out that, and where, it hangs - I removed
'-nographics' and saw the error messages on the (virtual) console.

I mean both: For my daily work, I need the machine to run all sorts of
Linux for testing purposes, as well as all sorts of BSDs and most sorts
of modern Windows, starting at Windows XP or maybe earlier, and maybe
some more (eg. OpenSolaris). I also really want/need to run really
"foreign" machines, like eg. the emulator for my OpenMoko.
The Linux/Windows/BSD/Solaris stuff needs to be sufficiently reliable
and efficient for a hosting operation and/or inhouse use ("server
consolidation"), as an alternative to Xen and friends.
Kind regards,
