I've a bugreport handy, see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=575439 about the apparent problem booting winNT 4 in kvm 0.12. At least 2 people were hit by this issue. In short, when booting winNT 4.0, it BSODs with error code 0x0000001E, which means "inaccessible boot device". Note that it is when upgrading from -72 to 0.12. But the second person on the bug page also tried to reinstall the OS, and that failed as well, now with a different error message. I'll try to find an nt4 cdrom here to try it, but I can't promise anything....
I found an old winNT-4.0 install CD-Rom and tried that. But it stops right at "Inspecting your hardware configuration" stage, with the error: "STOP: 0x0000003E" (BSOD). According to MS -- http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms819006.aspx -- this means "multiprocessor configuration is not supported. For example, not all processors are at the same level or of the same type. There might also be mismatched coprocessor support." Obviously I'm running it with -smp 1, here's the complete kvm command line: kvm -hda winNT.raw -m 512 -cdrom Win_NT_4_Enterprise.iso -localtime -vga std (with default vga - cirrus - it displays garbage) And the complete BSOD: http://www.corpit.ru/mjt/winnt4_1.gif
Thanks! /mjt
