hi,
anybody tested Qemu with the Windows 8 Consumer Preview?
i tried the 32-bit ISO file with 1.0.1, with and without -enable-kvm,
and Qemu reboots immediately after the first screen. that is no more
than 10 seconds into the boot.
thanks,
Jun

Alex has posted patches that supposedly make AHCI boot work.

Yes, but TCG mode also failed on me. I only tried the x64 version though.

Have you tried some real CPU model like -cpu Nehalem? At least qemu64 is
broken for any recent Windows.

Why AHCI is needed? I was able to install it on ide (qemu-kvm -cpu
host).

It's not needed, it's just faster. Andreas was trying to say that I did run Windows 8, because I had it working with AHCI. :)

Ah, got it. Well, I confirm that it runs, but installing it was the least
pleasant computer experience I ever had, so why bother? :)

It would be nice to understand what's wrong with it, yes. I am used to the
fact that qemu defaults are unusable.
