Now that qemu is less likely to eat my data, " *[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/8]

I thought I would try using the raw 1.5TB partition again with KVM,
still no go.

Hm.  I don't have so much diskspace (my largest is 750Gb, whole disk),
but I created 1.5Tb sparse lvm volume.  It appears to work for me,
even 32bit version of qemu-kvm-0.12.4 (with the mentioned patch applied).

I am still having to use:

#undef CONFIG_PREADV

Host and guest kernel version is 2.6.34, headers 2.6.33, glibc 2.10.1-r1
qemu-kvm 0.12.4 + patch above.

eglibc-2.10.2-6, kernel #2.6.34.0-amd64,
kernel headers 2.6.32-11~bpo50+1
(debian)

Who do I need to bug? glibc? kvm?

are you running 32bit userspace and 64bit kernel
by a chance?  If yes that's a kernel prob, see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.aio.general/2891
(the fix will be in 2.6.35 hopefully, now it's in
Andrew Morton's tree).

If not, well, I don't know ;)
