I recently switched to Windows XP x64 Edition on my two 64-Bit x86 systems. Ever since, I've had trouble with Virtual PC, where I run a couple of Plan 9 VMs. I was wondering if anyone has seen similar issues:
I copied over a virtual machine from a 32-bit host, where it was running happily. I also get the same errors during the install process, just after it tries to format the fossil. Below are the relevant messages from the boot process: ... fossil(#S/sdC0/fossil)...version...time... command 30 data f0caaaf8 limit f0cab8f8 dlen 8291 status 0 error 0 lba 605536 -> 605536, count 16 -> 16 (16) 0x00 0x06 0x6A 0x3D 0x09 0xE0 0x58 0x40: E307 0x42: C0000x48: 00 0x4A: 0000 fossil: diskWriteRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x00005529: date Sun Apr 5 06:37:19 PDT 2009 part=data block 21801: i/o error ... I get several subsequent messages that say basically the same thing, with different block numbers, but the machine never finishes booting. Has anyone seen anything similar? Is this a Plan 9 bug, Windows x64 bug, or Virtual PC x64 bug? Many thanks in advance! -Ben
