i guess it has something to do with intel cpus - i installed recently a kvm-vm with windows server 2008 on my "amd athlon 64"-based jaunty server with no problems at all...
on my notebook, i still got problems booting non-virtio based vms from harddisk using virt-manager/libvirtd. a linux-vm with virtio-driver works fine... dell xps 1330m intel core2duo t7250 ubuntu 9.04 (i386) kernel 2.6.30.5 -- 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
