I get this error message whenever I try to install or boot windows XP as a guest OS with kvm-17 on kernel 2.6.20 with an AMD64 X2 CPU.
The full dump: unhandled vm exit: 0x0 rax 00000000ffdff13c rbx 000000000000001e rcx 0000000000000000 rdx 0000000000000000 rsi 0000000080541b64 rdi 0000000000000724 rsp 00000000804d700c rbp 000000008053fa20 r8 0000000000000000 r9 0000000000000000 r10 0000000000000000 r11 0000000000000000 r12 0000000000000000 r13 0000000000000000 r14 0000000000000000 r15 0000000000000000 rip 000000008053f625 rflags 00000006 cs 0008 (00000000/ffffffff p 1 dpl 0 db 1 s 1 type b l 0 g 0 avl 0) ds 0023 (00000000/ffffffff p 1 dpl 3 db 1 s 1 type 3 l 0 g 1 avl 0) es 0023 (00000000/ffffffff p 1 dpl 3 db 1 s 1 type 3 l 0 g 1 avl 0) ss 0010 (00000000/ffffffff p 1 dpl 0 db 1 s 1 type 3 l 0 g 1 avl 0) fs 0030 (ffdff000/00001fff p 1 dpl 0 db 1 s 1 type 3 l 0 g 1 avl 0) gs 0000 (00000000/0000ffff p 1 dpl 0 db 0 s 1 type 3 l 0 g 0 avl 0) tr 0028 (80042000/000020ab p 1 dpl 0 db 0 s 0 type 9 l 0 g 0 avl 0) ldt 0000 (00000000/0000ffff p 0 dpl 0 db 0 s 0 type 0 l 0 g 0 avl 0) gdt 8003f000/3ff idt 8003f400/7ff cr0 8001003d cr2 ffffff9e cr3 a4a000 cr4 20 cr8 f efer 800 Aborted This is the command I execute to run this guest: qemu-system-x86_64 -hda winxp.img -m 1024 I have also tried to disable acpi: qemu-system-x86_64 -hda winxp.img -m 1024 -no-acpi With the no-acpi option, the system will immediately reboot on the first attempt, and then crash with the same error message after the reboot. Is there any explanation as to what this error is? Any assistance on this matter will be greatly appreciated. -Brian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
