[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1706296] Re: Booting NT 4 disk causes /home/rjones/d/qemu/cpus.c:1580:qemu_mutex_lock_iothread: assertion failed: (!qemu_mutex_iothread_locked())

[John Arbuckle]

Actually Windows NT 4.0 requires a 486 or higher.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_NT

Found out that the qcow2 image format causes INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE
errors with Windows NT 4.0, so I am going to update my workaround to use
the qcow format instead.

qemu-img create -f qcow <HD image file name>.qcow 4G

qemu-system-i386 -cpu pentium -vga cirrus -hda <HD image file name>.qcow
-cdrom <path to iso> -boot c

Bug description:
  Grab the NT 4 disk from
  https://archive.org/details/Microsoft_Windows_NT_Server_Version_4.0_227-075
  -385_CD-KEY_419-1343253_1996

  Try to boot it as follows:

  qemu-system-x86_64 -hda disk.img -cdrom 
Microsoft_Windows_NT_Server_Version_4.0_227-075-385_CD-KEY_419-1343253_1996.iso 
-m 2048 -boot d -machine pc,accel=tcg
  WARNING: Image format was not specified for 'disk.img' and probing guessed 
raw.
           Automatically detecting the format is dangerous for raw images, 
write operations on block 0 will be restricted.
           Specify the 'raw' format explicitly to remove the restrictions.
