Hi, I am installing some software (iTunes) in my Windows 2000 SP4 virtual machine. I don't know what it is going to /do/, specifically, to my VM so I would like to run QEMU in snapshot mode so that I can commit system changes only if desired. However, when I run qemu like this, I get into trouble:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ qemu -hda .disk/win2k.dsk -m 256 -snapshot -kernel-kqemu -usb -usbdevice tablet -localtime -smb /home/andrew *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (fasttop): 0xAborted Sometimes it finishes printing the address: 0x09b2c738 The SDL window never comes up, the abort is instanenous. I did a backtrace but because I built Debian packages debhelper strips the debug information out, so it doesn't say much. I can rebuild QEMU with debug information and obtain a proper backtrace if it would be useful to someone. This is a QEMU 0.8.2 CVS snapshot of 2006/08/19. I did a 'cvs up' on my source tree, only the documentation has been updated since then. Normally I run this VM exactly the same except without the '-snapshot' parameter. If I remove that, it starts up as expected. The disk image is QCOW2 and kqemu is 1.3.0pre9 (BTW, '-no-kqemu' without '-kernel-kqemu' makes no difference) glibc is 2.3.6-ds1-2 from Debian sid. QEMU was compiled with GCC 3.4.6 also from Debian. -- Andrew Barr | http://www.oakcourt.dyndns.org/~andrew/ All parts should go together without forcing. You must remember that the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you. Therefore, if you can't get them together again, there must be a reason. By all means, do not use a hammer. -- IBM maintenance manual (1925) _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
