[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1013888] Re: windows xp sp3 setup blank screen on boot

[Luigi Tarenga]

hi, 
same problem on centos 6.2 with vanilla kernel 3.4.2.
I compiled qemu 1.0.1 from source and qemu 1.1.0 from source.

/opt/qemu-1.0.1/bin/qemu-system-i386 -m 2048 -cdrom Win_XP_Pro_SP3.iso
-hda test.winXP.qcow2   :  works

/opt/qemu-1.1.0/bin/qemu-system-i386 -m 2048 -cdrom Win_XP_Pro_SP3.iso
-hda test.winXP.qcow2   :  hangs

/opt/qemu-1.1.0/bin/qemu-system-i386 -m 2048 -cdrom Win_XP_Pro_SP3.iso
-hda test.winXP.qcow2 -L /opt/qemu-1.0.1/data/ : hangs and on stderr
give: Could not open option rom 'kvmvapic.bin': No such file or
directory

/opt/qemu-1.1.0/bin/qemu-system-i386 -m 2048 -cdrom Win_XP_Pro_SP3.iso
-hda test.winXP.qcow2 -L /opt/qemu-1.0.1/data/ -cpu qemu32,-apic  :
hangs
