It looks like I am hitting this problem under kvm_amd. I've tried several guest kernels (CentOS 5 ISO, Maverick PXE boot and ISO, Squeeze PXE and netboot ISO). All hang basically as soon as the kernel loads. No VGA output, no Serial output even with options 'earlyprintk=ttyS0,115200 debug apic=debug'. I have yet to find a kernel that will actually boot though I have not tried Fedora 14. Info:
