All three platforms give the same error. I've been booting Android guests on QEMU/KVM-ARM (and TCG) without any problems, since around last year if I remember correctly. Android guests became stable for me when lazy VFP switching was implemented. My last successful boot for both host and guest (vexpress) uses: Kernel: https://github.com/virtualopensystems/linux-kvm-arm/tree/kvm-vexpress-3.9 QEMU: https://github.com/virtualopensystems/qemu/tree/kvm-arm-virtio-fb-hack Android: I've tried AOSP before, but Linaro builds should also work. See attached kernel config, which should work for both the host and the guest.
