I got around this by installing with kvm, format the drive, then boot with virt-manager and do the installation without formating the drive.
kvm -m 512 -hda winxp.qcow2 -cdrom xp_sp2.iso -boot d just format the drive then boot with virt manager, do NOT format the drive, choose "leave file system as it is". Of course, you either need to do this from the local machine (if you have a gui loaded) or you'll have to get x-forwarding working across your ssh connection. I did it from the local machine. Sure enough a nasty little bug though. :) -- kvm can not run Windows XP https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
