I think it's the same issue as the below bug I reported. https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1007269 You can try with '-cpu coreduo' or '-cpu core2duo' in qemu-kvm command line. This should be a known issue which is caused by missing 'SEP' CPU flag. See another bug in Redhat bugzilla. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=821741 -- 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
