Comment 33 for bug 595438

I can confirm the segfault with the same Fedora 1 install. It doesn't even get to 50%, it segfaults way earlier. In fact I tried this:

- kvm-img create -f qcow2 /store/KVM/test.qcow2 2G
- gimre@voy:~$ sudo LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sn:/sbin:/bin QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none /usr/bin/kvm -M pc-0.12 -enable-kvm -m 256 -smp 1 -name spamsender -uuid b9cacd5e-08f7-41fd-78c8-89cec59af881 -chardev socket,id=monitor,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/test.monitor,server,nowait -monitor chardev:monitor -boot d -drive file=/store/Kits/isos/yarrow-i386-disc1.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=2 -drive file=/store/KVM/test.qcow2,if=scsi,index=0,format=qcow2,cache=writeback -net nic,macaddr=00:00:00:00:00:00,vlan=0,name=nic.0 -net tap,vlan=0,name=tap.0 -chardev pty,id=serial0 -serial chardev:serial0 -parallel none -usb -vnc 172.16.21.1:1 -vga cirrus
(mostly the same options, renamed only to "test whatever")
- Fedora text install, everything on default, "Personal Desktop", auto-partitioning
- after it complained that the stuff wouldn't fit (because the partitions are too small), I gave it another go (without reboot) and it crapped out instantly.

I'll try the -proposed package in a little while.
