[Qemu-devel] unable to boot systemrescuecd with tcg only?

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

Get system rescue CD version 2.8.0 here:
http://www.sysresccd.org/Sysresccd-versions

Verify md5 checksum: 450305b2c3ac12d5c97ff849ca178586

Try to boot:

./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64  -net user -net nic -snapshot -cdrom \
~/images/systemrescuecd-x86-2.8.0.iso

Select option: all files cached to memory.

Error: XZ compressed data is corrupt.

Try version 1.2.2 (in F18)

qemu-system-x86_64  -net user -net nic -snapshot -cdrom \
~/images/systemrescuecd-x86-2.8.0.iso

Boots fine, gets to keyboard prompt.


Try with kvm:

./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -net user -net nic -snapshot 
-cdrom \
~/images/systemrescuecd-x86-2.8.0.iso


Boots fine, gets to keyboard prompt.

Didn't try bisecting yet.
