But, this is on my one and only laptop which makes it a serious pain to diagnose. I also didn't have a hardware serial console on it before, which I do now. This is all on 2.6.26-rc4-01549-g1beee8d. Adding the mem= does not help at all. But, it is all a bit more diagnosable now than a month or two ago. I turned on all of the kernel debugging that I could get my grubby little hands on. It now oopses quite consistently when kvm runs instead of after. Here's a collection of oopses that I captured after setting up a serial line: http://sr71.net/~dave/kvm-oops1.txt After collecting all those, I turned on CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM and the oopses miraculously stopped. But, the guest hung (for at least 5 minutes or so) during windows bootup, pegging my host CPU. Most of the CPU was going to klogd, so I checked dmesg. I was seeing messages like this [ 428.918108] kvm_handle_exit: unexpected, valid vectoring info and exit reason is 0x9 And quite a few of them, like 100,000/sec. That's why klogd was pegging the CPU. Any idea on a next debugging step? -- Dave --
