I have been testing OpenSolaris using the latest qemu-kvm and the KVM

OpenSolaris 2009.06 live CD in 64-bit mode I get several complaints
about illegal instruction followed by an infinite loop of attempts to
enter maintenance mode. This configuration worked under KVM-88 in
F-11. If I specify --no-kvm it works and if I force 32-bit kernel it
works.
Any suggestions on how to further debug?
What exactly are the complaints?
Thanks for the reply, I am not sure how to get the exact messages
since they are early in the boot. Any suggestions?
Use qemu -serial and configure the guest to log to the serial port.
Some additional background:
-I originally installed on KVM-88 which worked in 64-bit mode (F11).
-After upgrading to F12 I encountered the above problem on the
installed image using latest qemu-kvm and fedora kernel KVM modules.
-After booting the live CD in 32-bit mode and installing. The
installed image now works in 64-bit mode
So the problem is in the install kernel?

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
