Hi all!

(Please Cc, thanks)

kernel 2.6.24-rc{3,4,5}
kvm user space v55
kvm kernel space v55 or the one from the kernel

I am trying to install a winxp (either plain or sp2) into a kvm:

        qemu-img create -f qcow vdisk.img 10G
        kvm -hda vdisk.img -cdrom /path/to/winxp.iso -boot d  -m 384 -no-acpi

The initial installation works, then Windows reboots (you know the nice
KITT left-right bar), then the normal installation continues and at some
point, in fact ALWAYS the same point it hangs and does not continue.
It is around 39/37min from being finished (well, that is what Windows
tells me). The last thing written is driver probing or so.

Then it hangs. And it seems that there is *no* activity at all, the kvm
is in Sl+ state, using no CPU time. The Alt-PrScreen-t tells me:
kvm           S e8bb3e10     0  6171   5947

for one process and

for the other.

I tried several other things, like -no-kvm, -no-kvm-irqchip, -tdf, all
without success.

Is there anything else I can do to get across this problem?

Thanks a lot for any suggestions and all the best

Norbert
