Bug Description
Binary package hint: grub2
If you install a lucid VM in qemu (definately upstream version 0.14.0, I think also in natty's version), and run it with
kvm -hda VM.img -vga std
the VM refuses to boot, showing an error about 'out of range pointer 0x80220000'. Installing a 2.6.38 kernel does not help. Installing grub DOES prevent this bug.
A natty VM boots just fine. RHEL, fedora, and SLES images boot fine.
