Using "-cpu 486" made installing itactually work. Now I am seeing another issue. When I boot Windows NT4.0 I see this error message: *** STOP: 0x0000007B (0x807A8610,0x00000000,0x00000000,0x00000000) INACESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE Would anyone know a way to solve this issue?Hervé is probably the best person to answer this question. Maybe tryinstalling it with SCSI disks ("-drive if=scsi,id=hd,file=... -drive if=scsi,id=cd,file=... -device lsi -device scsi-hd,drive=hd -device scsi-cd,drive=cd"). Thanks, PaoloThanks for the help. Unfortunately trying to boot from the install CD leads to the INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE error when using SCSI.Try with 0.12.
After doing a lot of bisecting I found a patch that did break Windows NT 4.0 compatibility long ago. Not sure if it is the problem we face today. This is it:
commit 2bec46dc97571a3c34b18fe4ca198e7bfbdca41f Author: aliguori <address@hidden> Date: Mon Nov 24 20:21:41 2008 +0000 vga optimization (Glauber Costa) Hypervisors like KVM perform badly while doing mmio on a loop, because it'll generate an exit on each access. This is the case with VGA, which results in very bad performance. In this patch, we map the linear frame buffer as RAM, make sure it has dirty region tracking enabled, and then just let the region to be written.
