I'm building some kvm-test harnesses and noticed an issue when 
installing Windows on my Core 2 Duo laptop.  After the first reboot 
during the installation, after the prompt to press any key to boot from 
CD, I just get a black screen.  This is not influenced by -no-kvm-irqchip.

Is this a known issue?  I know there were some issues with reboot in VT 
but I thought they were resolved.  I vaguely remember running into this 
before and just restarting KVM to work around it but that's not an 
option here.  Has this worked for others in the past?

Regards,

Anthony Liguori

It's a known issue, and I am working on it.

Okay, I thought so, I just wanted to confirm.
