yesterday's snapshot of cvs is ok, minus the _commit fixes for win32/mingw which are not yet inside the tar.bz2 I can see vista booting now...

Re: RE : Re: [Qemu-devel] Windows Vista
I can't go any further than formatting an 8Gb qcow image. Vista complains it can't use it. I'm using a win32/mingw home-made compilation. Vista needs at least 6.7Gb Is this a 64 bits limitation on win32/mingw ? how can we get past it ? suggestions are welcome On 6/9/06, Christian MICHON [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: yesterday's snapshot of cvs is ok, minus the _commit fixes for win32/mingw which are not yet inside the tar.bz2 I can see vista booting now...

Re: RE : Re: [Qemu-devel] Windows Vista
Tried to format the qcow with another windows version but vista/ longhorn? Vista is well known for their problems on formatting step with a variety of emulators. In their developer's page they say to format the virtual disk first with XP for use of vista under VPC.

Re: RE : Re: [Qemu-devel] Windows Vista
ok, I'll try that. But I also suspect a win32/mingw limitation on files bigger than 2Gb, since gcc -dumpspecs does not show anything related to -m64, which I'd expect to have to add to CFLAGS to be able to use iso or qcow images bigger than 2Gb. Apparently, experimental build of cygwin may carry 64 bits capable gcc+binutils (I'll try that too) On 6/9/06, Natalia Portillo [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tried to format the qcow with another windows version but vista/ longhorn?

Re: RE : Re: [Qemu-devel] Windows Vista
I used a precompiled binary that is on the google for installing a full opensuse 10 and made a 7gb qcow with no problem at all. However, try to do a dd=/dev/zero to grow the qcow first or so. just, are you in NTFS xD? El 09/06/2006, a las 21:41, Christian MICHON escribió: ok, I'll try that.

Re: RE : Re: [Qemu-devel] Windows Vista
On Mac OS X host Windows XP does refuse to install on a qcow image but raw images work. I haven't tried, but I think it's the same with Vista. Installing in a raw image works fine.
