Hi Jan,

I tested with an ACPI-enabled windows.
Results:
-no-acpi: Continuous reboots like the no-acpi-windows-version
without -no-acpi: boots!

So I tested the no-acpi-windows-version without -no-acpi option - still
rebooting
And without -no-acpi and -no-kvm-irqchip => works again

Best regards,

Erik
