See RedHat's bugzilla #508801. Based on Fedora's spec file[ref#2] I've created RPM packages from origin/master origin/stable-0.11 origin/stable-0.12 branches. I've removed all RedHat's patches from .spec file, to have vanilla qemu package. All those packages with buildlogs are placed online[#ref3]. I have three guest operating systems for testing: Fedora 12 i386, OpenBSD 4.6-release i386, OpenBSD current i386. I would like to ask on which branch of qemu I should focus on, as currently with official Fedora 12 I cannot start any OpenBSD version, but with my builds from lates sources of qemu I cannot start Fedora 12 i386 (OpenBSD are untested yet). qemu*-0.12.0-00.1.stable.20091220.010130.fctest.i386.rpm are built from origin/stable-0.12 qemu*-0.12.0-00.1.master.20091220.010130.fctest.i386.rpm are built from origin/master qemu*-0.11.0-12.1.stable.20091220.010130.fctest.i386.rpm are built from origin/stable-0.11 With origin/master and origin/stable-0.12 after starting Fedora 12 i386 as guest OS CPU on host goes to 100% and grub is not even starting, with origin/stable-0.11 grub starts, but then when Linux kernel is starting nothing happens and CPU on host machine goes to 100% usage. I cannot write code for issues described above, but if anyone is willing to get involved and help me to resolve them I would appreciate that.
