[Qemu-devel] Problem installing NT4

[Qemu-devel] Problem installing NT4

[Yves Glodt]

Hello,

I am using qemu-0.6.1 in windows and I try to install NT4, but I
always run into problems...:
After setup ran fine and asks to reboot, I close the qemu window.
Then I start qemu and tell it to boot the newly installed NT from the
disk image:
qemu.exe -L . -m 128 -hda qemu_winnt4 -enable-audio -localtime -user-net

Today immediately I got this error:
Disk I/O error: Status = 00000C00
NTLDR: Fatal Error 3072 reading BOOT.INI

(Using FAT filesystem)

Yesterday, I came somewhat further, but after NT making it's initial
filesytem check (shortly
after booting initially) it complained about not being able to find a
dll required for boot.

I have tried using NTFS or FAT as filesystem for NT but it does not
seem to make a difference.
Using FAT, I come sometimes a little further, as the second error from
yesterday shows.

Now this looks to me like some kind of filesystem/diskimage corruption.
I noticed that starting with version 0.6.1 I don't get the qemu
monitor-window anymore, so
I cannot force a write to the diskimage, could that be the problem?

Thanks for qemu and best regards,
Yves




btw the diskimage file has been created with:
qemu-img.exe create qemu_winnt4 1024M

Try to compile the CVS version (or one of my snapshots) and try again.
I managed to install NT 4 server (and workstation) perfectly.

Thanks,
Hetz

OK, I tried with this snapshot:
ftp://ftp.freeoszoo.org/qemu/win32/daily/QemuInstall-20041121.exe
and NT4 WS setup is about to finish (read: it works) :-)

Thanks and best regards,
