pci pass-through on AMD architecture

pci pass-through on AMD architecture

[Jonas Pfoh]

Hello,

I seem to be having some issues making the pci pass-through work from 
the command line.  Interestingly, a hot-plug works (i.e., passing the 
device through via the qemu console).  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jonas Pfoh

Sry, prob informative to add that were running qemu-kvm-0.10.6 on a 
vanilla 2.6.30.4-0.1-default kernel.
