I have started it in the single user mode. Sometimes I get a shell. But the cpu load rise up to 100% and I can't enter any commands. Screenshot: http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz/download/file.php?id05&mode=view Trace log: http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz/download/file.php?id04 Could you look in the trace log, please? I can do more tests if you like. Cheers, Christian > > SMP should be fine. The reason XNU doesn't work with QEMU + KVM is > split real mode.
