1) have you tried using qemu-img instead of dd ? (I usually use the qcow format for windows guests. 2G should be ok. qemu-img create -f qcow hd.img 2G ) 2) you do not mention bios path, memory of vm and boot sequence. I suggest you add at least the -boot d. By default, 128M will be used

In your original message, you mentioned setup had finished. One thing I can recommend trying on your second attempt is to make sure you create more than one user account when prompted. XP Pro seems to behave differently depending on if there is one or more than one accounts. I actually had the

See the 3rd Q in http://www.geocities.com/nixling_gone/faq.html Paul Thanks, I figured this would be a problem and that's why I didn't try to chase things down. Sadly the current distro I'm playing with (Fedorca Core PPC) doesn't even have a gcc3 option!! But on that note I'll not be
