Hi all,

this question might seem a bit weird, but does anyone see a good way to avoid
that Windows is able to boot inside qemu?

We have defined several profiles for different operation systems and I want
to avoid that someone chooses Linux and then installs Windows within
a VM. Reason is licensing.

Thanks,
Peter
- create a device
- write a linux driver
- if driver is not enabled crash guest

For how long to wait before a crash?
I would not like to alter the software in the guest anyway. If this would be 
required
I could force a Linux version that would search for the alternate KVM signature
in the cpuid leaf.

Peter
