------=_NextPart_000_0081_01C91269.03ED9E20 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I am using qemu without any problems on a 7.0-p4 host, here are a few things I learnt a lot the way: 1. qemu (with kqemu kernel module loaded) will cause the problems you are having (extreme instability). 2. qemu-devel (with kqemu-devel kernel module loaded) will work fine until you start swapping memory, then it seems some sort of memory corruption will occur and crash the VM. If you have plenty of RAM give the -devel versions a go, otherwise do not use kqemu as it seems to be unstable. At the moment I am running a WindowsXP-SP3 VM with qemu-devel (albeit very slowly) without kqemu or stability problems.
