It's a crash in the vfat code in qemu. Can you try any of the newer qemu-kvm rpms, like the one from virt-preview, which is based off qemu 0.12?

Comment 3 Tobias Mueller 2010-06-16 17:21:10 UTC
Hey Amit :-)

I've looked through the code on git myself and it seems to have changed to the better.

If you give me an RPM, I'd happily install and test it.

Comment 4 Amit Shah 2010-06-17 04:11:53 UTC
There's a wiki page that details how to use the virt-preview repo:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Virtualization_Preview_Repository

Does that work? Upgrading to a newer qemu upgrades certain other rpms too, so it's difficult to point to just one rpm.

Comment 5 Tobias Mueller 2010-06-17 12:21:30 UTC
I've installed Fedora 13 and it still crashes: see bug 605202.

Comment 6 Justin M. Forbes 2010-09-02 16:44:03 UTC
This should be fixed with the latest qemu-0.12.5 packages in F13.  Please reopen if this is not the case.
