Subject: Booting/installing WindowsNT
Date: Sat, 01 May 2010 00:59:46 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BDB44C2.7090204@msgid.tls.msk.ru> (raw)

Apparently with current kvm stable (0.12.3)
Windows NT 4.0 does not install anymore.

With default -cpu, it boots, displays the
"Inspecting your hardware configuration"
message and BSODs with "STOP: 0x0000003E"
error as shown here:
  http://www.corpit.ru/mjt/winnt4_1.gif
With -cpu pentium the situation is a
 >bit< better, it displays:

  Microsoft (R) Windows NT (TM) Version 4.0 (Build 1381).
  1 System Processor [512 MB Memory]  Multiprocessor Kernel

and stops there with 100% CPU usage, never
going any further.

Kvm command line is trivial, with -hda
and -cdrom and -vga std (with -vga cirrus
it displays garbage here).  The only parameters
of interest are:

  -no-acpi - this one has no visible effect
  -cpu pentium - tried that with some change
    but no success anyway.

Anyone know what's going on here?

Thanks!
