but the proble remains. Same symptom.
Yes, I was hoping to avoid downloading an iso I'd never heard of.

Yep, me neither. But it's OK for this case, 'cause we are only using it in a
guest on the virtual machine.

Problem is, the bug is especially regards Norton Ghost, the most well-known,
and widely-used disk cloning tools for windows. Check out:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norton_Ghost
My question about 32-bit and 64-bit maverick was in a guest, not on the
> host.
Ok, now I know what you meant.
Actually, we are not even there yet.
Please do the following.
- create a brand new kvm disk image,
kvm-img create -f qcow hda 6G
- without doing anything else, try to boot Norton Ghost from within kvm:
kvm -hda hda -cdrom /path/to/Hiren.BootCD.8.6.iso -boot d
and see if you can boot into Norton Ghost yourself.
Thanks
