Ran into this problem today with fresh Windows 2003 R2 install on a IDE boot drive. Because the CD-ROM boot bypasses this problem the install completes just fine, until I tell it to boot from the hard disk (via libvirt).
Latest available packages from Debian testing; qemu 0.12.4+dfsg-3 qemu-kvm 0.12.4+dfsg-1 qemu-system 0.12.4+dfsg-3 qemu-user 0.12.4+dfsg-3 qemu-utils 0.12.4+dfsg-3 seabios 0.5.1-3 The only thing I've been able to find so far is an odd character in the SeaBIOS string when booting from the hard disk, which isn't there when booting from the CD-ROM image. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot of odd character in SeaBIOS string (VNC)" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51532804/seabios-odd-character-boot-bug.png -- Windows XP/2003 doesn't boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/586175 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is the registrant for Debian. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
