This happens with the latest version. I have only tried the RHEL4 or Debian Sarge guest kernels before (both <= 2.6.9) and they work fine. Failure is also quite intriguing - the guest just sort of goes into an infinite loop, no further output on vnc console (or serial), nothing pops up in usual logs (qemu-dm.log, xend.log, xend-debug.log ...). Kind of trumped by it. Kindly let me know if anything comes to mind.
