Hi Jonathan, the problem looks similar to the Win2003 Server hangs I encountered recently [1]. I was also using a 2.6.24.3 kernel, although mine is a self-rolled vanilla+grsec kernel. Since I'm testing with the 2.6.25-rc7 kernel I do no longer have those problems. So you might give upgrading a shot. regards, Felix [1] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/15223 --------------080908090202000100080103 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi Jonathan,

the problem looks similar to the Win2003 Server hangs I encountered recently [1]. I was also using a 2.6.24.3 kernel, although mine is a self-rolled vanilla+grsec kernel.
Since I'm testing with the 2.6.25-rc7 kernel I do no longer have those problems.
So you might give upgrading a shot.

regards,
Felix
