(I assume when you say "a 4.2.0 versioned qemu" you mean that you're using version 4.2 of QEMU, not that you're using a 4.2-versioned machine type with a newer version of the QEMU binary, given the command line that you say you're using.) For problems of the form "this didn't work in QEMU version X, but it does work in newer QEMU Y", the obvious guess is "this was a bug, and we fixed it in the later version". So if the newer version works for you I would recommend using it -- 4.2 is now very old, and it's unlikely anybody will be particularly interested in doing the work to try to figure out what was going on in such an old version of QEMU, unless you have a support contract with them... thanks -- PMM
