David used "5.6.0-1042.46-oem", the closest I had was "5.6.0-1052-oem" so I tried that one.
With that my win10 install immediately crashed into the reported issue. So to summarize: 1. I can reproduce it 2. Chances are high that it is fixed by kernel commit 841c2be0 "kvm: x86: replace kvm_spec_ctrl_test_value with runtime test on the host" 3. there are some qemu changes which might be related, but we need Babu to reply about if/how those are related I need to get myself updated on Ubuntu oem kernels. If there is a 5.6 series that is supposed to work on that, then this patch needs to be backported. But if OTOH it is a valid upgrade path that you'll get the 5.10.0-1020-oem that I had or later as part of your 20.04 OEM then that "is the fix" for you @David. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-oem-5.6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.6 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1915063 Title: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64 Status in QEMU: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux-oem-5.10 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux-oem-5.6 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Steps to reproduce install virt-manager and ovmf if nopt already there copy windows and virtio iso files to /var/lib/libvirt/images Use virt-manager from local machine to create your VMs with the disk, CPUs and memory required Select customize configuration then select OVMF(UEFI) instead of seabios set first CDROM to the windows installation iso (enable in boot options) add a second CDROM and load with the virtio iso change spice display to VNC Always get a security error from windows and it fails to launch the installer (works on RHEL and Fedora) I tried updating the qemu version from Focals 4.2 to Groovy 5.0 which was of no help --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.14 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistributionChannelDescriptor: # This is the distribution channel descriptor for the OEM CDs # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor canonical-oem-sutton-focal-amd64-20201030-422+pc-sutton-bachman-focal-amd64+X00 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-01-20 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 "Focal" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20201030-14:39 MachineType: LENOVO 30E102Z NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 EFI VGA ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.6.0-1042-oem root=UUID=389cd165-fc52-4814-b837-a1090b9c2387 ro locale=en_US quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.6.0-1042.46-oem 5.6.19 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-backports-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-firmware 1.187.8 RfKill: Tags: focal Uname: Linux 5.6.0-1042-oem x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip docker kvm libvirt lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 07/29/2020 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: S07KT08A dmi.board.name: 1046 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Defined dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrS07KT08A:bd07/29/2020:svnLENOVO:pn30E102Z:pvrThinkStationP620:rvnLENOVO:rn1046:rvrNotDefined:cvnLENOVO:ct3:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: INVALID dmi.product.name: 30E102Z dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_30E1_BU_Think_FM_ThinkStation P620 dmi.product.version: ThinkStation P620 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1915063/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
