Hi,
I was hitting the STOP 0x000000A5 error when attempting to boot Vista or
similar (Server 2008, WinPE) on current qemu CVS. Googling suggested that
this was a problem with the qemu BIOS not supporting ACPI 2.0.
Replacing pc-bios/bios.bin with the bios/BIOS-bochs-latest from current
bochs CVS fixed the problem, and I am now able to boot these operating
systems. This isn't a perfect solution, since the bochs BIOS is built
without #define BX_QEMU.
It looks as though the BIOS problem has been fixed upstream; could someone
who knows what they're doing rebuild pc-bios/bios.bin from the latest
bochs CVS and check it in to qemu CVS?
Thanks,
Michael
