I'll try again without -no-kvm-irqchip, newer KVM and newer Kernel, but last
time I tested kvm-0.13 and Linux-2.6.37 with the same results, see

I also had problems with Windows XP 32Bit: Installation taking more than 20
minutes with no noticeable progress, also VirtIO (probably an older version,
I don't have that instance any more)
