Subject: DOS VM problem with QEMU-KVM and newer kernels
Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2012 20:32:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F871FB6.4020906@wiesinger.com> (raw)

Hello,

I'm having problems with recents kernels and qemu-kvm with a DOS VM:
TD286
System: Bad selector: 0007
System: Bad selector: 0D87
System: Bad selector: 001F
System: Bad selector: 0007
GP at 0020 21D4 EC 0DC4
Error 269 loading D:\BP\BIN\TD286.EXE into extended memory

Another 286 DOS Extender application also rises a general protection fault:
GP at 0020 18A1 CODE 357C

Doesn't depend on the used DOS memory manager and is always reproduceable.

Depends only on kernel version and not qemu-kvm and seabios (tried to 
bisect it without success):

x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

CPU is an AMD one.

Any ideas how to fix it again?
Any switches which might help?

Thnx.

Ciao,
Gerhard
