Installed OS is Ubuntu Edgy I get kvm tarball and compiled it. After installing gcc 3.4 I begin compile step On Ubuntu Edgy there is no uuid/uuid.h file so I have grab it from tar file at Ubuntu repository and put it in qemu subdir of kvm On Ubuntu Edgy libuuid is in /lib/libuuid.so.1 so I make a link from it to /lib/libuuid.so After this, I got kvm compile and install. I modprobe new module without any problem, create a disk image and begint to install Windows XP on that. At formatting step it take a long time (about 25 min for a 6Gb of disk) with 90% of CPU and only very little i/o activity.At about 99%, exit from install with a message "impossible to format". Using dmesg command I geta lot of this error: [17192500.496000] kvm: unhandled rdmsr: 0xc0000081 I have also tried a workaround necessary for Xen on my MB. In install procedure of XP I hit F5 key and used "Standard PC" from menu choice, without any change Booting with -no-acpi flag an image file made by qemu (for first install step) and by Xen (for install completition) boot and work but I am not able to activate network connection. I find a network adapter, I can configure it but I have no response pinging other LAN PC.
