It also crashes with linux-0.2.img
   See: http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/linux-0.2.img.bz2

In this case it freezes right after "LILO boot:" appears. Again removing
"-smp 2" fixes the problem, and again the host cpu is 100% utilised
while the VM is frozen.

Workaround:
  install: http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/qemu-0.9.1-i386.tar.gz
(installs to /usr/local/, so do not need t remove the qemu-0.9.0 package first)

** Summary changed:

- SMP causes LiveCD splash screen to freeze
+ "-smp 2" causes QEMU VM to freeze when booting linux

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: qemu
  
  The LiveCD splash screen crashes under qemu when -smp 2 is given. I have
  tested qemu with the dapper, hardy and gutsy-ia64 LiveCDs, with and
  without kqemu
  
  With
    qemu -m 256 -cdrom ~/images/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso -boot d
  qemu works correctly. The 30s timer appears and counts down
  
  However, when I add the "-smp 2" option the splash screen appears, but
  the 30s timer does not appear and the VM does not respond to key
  presses.
  
+ Workaround: Install the upstream qemu package:
+     http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/qemu-0.9.1-i386.tar.gz
+ (upstream installs to /usr/local/, so do not need to remove the qemu-0.9.0 
package first)
