Failed to get Windows Vista to install on KVM-13.
Tried the following combinations:
kvm and no-kvm -- Blue Screen of Death
no-acpi (kvm or no-kvm) -- Can only install if BIOS supports ACPI error.
I have taken screen shots of both situations if people are interested. Just
have not posted to this message to keep our Mail Queues and boxes uncluttered.
I could help with debugging and development testing of Vista.
Iain

The ACPI implementation in qemu is v1.0. Vista wants at least ACPI 2.0.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2006-11/msg00255.html
qemu 0.9.0 moves the ACPI tables into the bochs bios where they belong
- should be just a matter of updating these tables and other misc code.
Although IIRC ACPI doesn't work very well with KVM/KQEMU at the moment
for other reasons.

- Since KVM-12 it is possible to install windows without the -no-acpi
flag.
- We will soon upgrade our Qemu from 0.82 toward 0.9 so hopefully vista
will soon be energized by KVM.
- I managed to install the vista beta version. (I know the release is
problematic even to qemu head).
