Category: intel Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 8 Private: No Submitted By: Technologov (technologov) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Intel real mode emulation failures Initial Comment: Major Linux distros crash on KVM-29, Intel64 CPU. Those include: Mandriva 2007 (32/64-bit) Ubuntu 7.04 (32/64-bit) openSUSE 10.2 (32/64-bit) PCLinuxOS 2007 (32-bit) The all crash because of the same reason: Graphical Bootloader. (GRUB) If we fix the root of the issue, all the problems will gone. All of above work fine with -no-kvm. (Qemu) I thouught, that bug 1740031 (Kubuntu 7.04 fails to boot as guest- hangs after kernel boot) is related to this one, but since it was opened against kernel, not against the bootloader, I have decided to open this bug. -Alexey Eremenko. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Jes Sorensen (jessorensen) Date: 2010-06-11 14:49 Message: Pulled down a copy and tested. Ubuntu 7.04 installs and boots fine under recent KVM/QEMU. Looks like problem has been resolved.

Fixed distros: openSUSE 11.0, Ubuntu 8.04. Mandriva Linux (2007/2008/2009-beta1) are still problematic. Bug opened. Mandriva Linux unable to boot or install on KVM Virtualizer due to old GRUB: https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=42358 -Alexey, 3.8.2008. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Henrik Holst (henrik_holst) Date: 2008-02-08 15:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=2003951 Originator: NO I see the same here with KVM-60, on a Core 2 Duo 6600. Host is debian testing on a 2.6.22-3-amd64 kernel, using kvm-intel. Trying to boot a kubuntu-7.10 iso crashes directly, works flawlessy with -no-kvm and have tried to run both a debian and w2k3 as gursts without any problems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Technologov (technologov) Date: 2007-09-05 12:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1839746 Originator: YES Update: with KVM-36 this is partially fixed. Works on SVM, but still stucks on VMX. openSUSE 10.2 (32/64-bit) and Mandriva Linux 2007 boots now. -Alexey "Technologov" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Technologov (technologov) Date: 2007-07-25 17:51 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1839746 Originator: YES File Added: KVM29-VMX64-Ubuntu7-i386.txt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Technologov (technologov) Date: 2007-07-25 17:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1839746 Originator: YES File Added: KVM29-VMX64-PCLinuxOS2007-i386.txt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Technologov (technologov) Date: 2007-07-25 17:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1839746 Originator: YES File Added: KVM29-VMX64-openSUSE10.2.txt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Technologov (technologov) Date: 2007-07-25 17:44 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1839746 Originator: YES File Added: KVM29-VMX64-Mandriva2007-i386.txt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=1760424&group_id=180599 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
