RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

WinXP
Comment 3 Keqin Hong 2011-01-13 10:55:05 UTC 
This bug can be reproduced by starting a WinXP-32 guest then restarting Windows.
Comment 4 Gleb Natapov 2011-01-13 13:24:24 UTC 
So far I was not able to reproduce while rebooting WindowsXP.

The problem only happens on AMD host, and doesn't exist on Intel host.

Comment 10 Xiaoqing Wei 2011-01-25 06:16:55 UTC 
 after successfully installed the XP,it cant boot with any option.even     safe mode.


if in a AMD host boot the VM use a image(with XP installed used the same cmd with AMD host) created in intel host,it  boots normally.



seabios-0.6.1.2-1.el6.x86_64
Comment 11 Xiaoqing Wei 2011-01-25 06:52:35 UTC 
steps to reproduce:

1,in AMD host with following packages:
seabios-0.6.1.2-1.el6.x86_64
kernel-2.6.32-94.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.129.el6.x86_64

2,install WinXP using      (This cmd works well in Intel machine.) :


qemu-kvm -name 'vm1'  -monitor stdio -chardev socket,id=serial_c8LL,path=/tmp/serial-20110125-130916-0OgQ,server,nowait -device isa-serial,chardev=serial_c8LL \
\
\
\
-drive file='/usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm-new/autotest/client/tests/kvm/images/winXP-32.qcow2',index=0,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,media=disk,cache=none,format=qcow2,aio=native -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0 \
\
\
\
-device rtl8139,netdev=idNoOwh7,mac=9a:f5:5e:66:fe:07,netdev=idNoOwh7,id=ndev00idNoOwh7,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 -netdev tap,id=idNoOwh7,ifname='t0-130916-0OgQ',script='/usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm-new/autotest/client/tests/kvm/scripts/qemu-ifup-switch',downscript='no' -m 512 -smp 2,cores=1,threads=1,sockets=2 -drive file='/usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm-new/autotest/client/tests/kvm/isos/ISO/WinXP/32/en_windows_xp_professional_with_service_pack_3_x86_cd_x14-80428.iso',index=1,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-1,media=cdrom,readonly=on,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=1,drive=drive-ide0-0-1,id=ide0-0-1 -drive file='/usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm-new/autotest/client/tests/kvm/isos/windows/winutils.iso',index=2,if=none,id=drive-ide0-1-0,media=cdrom,readonly=on,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.1,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-1-0,id=ide0-1-0 -drive file='/usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm-new/autotest/client/tests/kvm/isos/windows/virtio-win.iso',index=3,if=none,id=drive-ide0-1-1,media=cdrom,readonly=on,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.1,unit=1,drive=drive-ide0-1-1,id=ide0-1-1 -cpu cpu64-rhel6,+sse2,+x2apic -fda '/usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm-new/autotest/client/tests/kvm/images/winXP-32/answer.vfd' -vnc :0 -rtc base=localtime,clock=host,driftfix=none  -boot order=cdn,once=d,menu=off   -usbdevice tablet -enable-kvm

3,the installation process hang after files copy completed.

4,in qemu-kvm monitor type "system_reset" to reset the guest,now it can reboot and resume and       successfully complete        the installation process

5,the guest OS cant be booted even in safe mode.it stuck shortly after select safe mode.

6,type "q" in qemu-kvm monitor to quit the guest


7,in host: downgrade seabios to  seabios-0.5.1-3.el6.x86_64

8,use the qemu-kvm cmd in step 2 to boot the guest
