Re: Booting "real" windows

    And is there any virtualization technology supported by libvirt
    which will allow it?

    It might be technically possible to boot the
      system, but I'd expect it to blue-screen on you. KVM would present
      slightly different hardware to the Windows system and Windows
      customizes itself for your hardware on install and can't change
      much.
      
        
      It is possible to install a VM to a physical
        partition, but you would have to reinstall Windows as a virtual
        machine. You then would have your current problem in reverse and
        would only be able to boot the partition virtually.
