The windows machine had four HDs, with several partitions each, so I need about 36 hours of continuous checking, disk cloning, qcow commits, geometry experiments, etc. to get qemu correctly launched. A nightmare, since for valid geometries, some partitions on virtual disks were ok and other were pure garbage. I had to split each disk (of four) in several virtual disks and burn some goats to gods, but it is working fine now. But now I have another showstop: I only get qemu emulation in 640*480, 16 colors. I select the Cirrus driver, as indicated in qemu FAQ, but Windows says that hardware is incorrectly configured and it keeps it in 640*480, 16 colors :-(. I'm tired, working 18 hours today, fighting with this. Any help welcomed. QEMU is a wonderful piece of work, nevertheless. Simply stunning. PS: My host is Suse 9.2, working in 1280*1024, 24 bits. I was hoping Windows as 1024*768, 16 or 24 bits; I would be happy. -- Jesus Cea Avion _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ jcea@argo.es http://www.argo.es/~jcea/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/_/_/ PGP Key Available at KeyServ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "Things are not so easy" _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "My name is Dump, Core Dump" _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "El amor es poner tu felicidad en la felicidad de otro" - Leibniz
