Thanks, all my hosts are Linux. My guests are Windows..

After re-installing windows 2000 SP3 & SP4 about 25 times on different 
machines, its looking wierd..
SP4 has a problem when configuring COM+ with no kqemu, but works fine with kqemu on all 3 machines 
(PIII, Sempron 2400+ Athlon XP 2800+).
Any Win2k SP3 or SP4 image created on the Athlons will not boot on the PIII, but an image created on 
the PIII seems to boot fine on all the machines..
Now to top it off, I have actually used identical qemu binaries on all the machines. Compiled on the 
PIII and copied to the Athlons, in addition to locally compiled copies... I'm using a vanilla qemu 
CVS with the DMA and Concurrent IO Patches. I have yet to remove those patches and try again.. it 
just keeps on getting stranger.

Problem has been worked around by creating the whole image on the laptop. Now it works anywhere, but 
I'm baffled as to why the images created on the Athlons won't boot on the laptop.

Regards,
Brad
