Greetings I got some error messages shortly after booting a Debian guest under QEMU 0.9.0. I did not annotate those, but they made me believe there could be disk access problems, and if fact something weird happened to one of the disk images (this was using two images, for hda and hdb): After

[Qemu-devel] -kernel-kqemu issue? hwclock w/ libc6-i686: segmentation fault on reboot

2006-08-19 Thread J M Cerqueira Esteves
I submited the attached report to the Debian bug tracking system, but just now I noticed that that segfault of hwclock with libc6-i686 (in a guest Debian testing system) only occurs if the virtual machine is started with -kernel-kqemu. Could this be related to some kqemu bug? Best regards
