This bug is annoying. I don't know who patched what but:
1. I finally was able (with version 0.12.5) to set up a WinXP installation which is able to boot on its own.
2. But this works only with IDE, if I try to use VirtIO I still can't boot the installation.
3. I just updated from 0.12.5 to 0.12.5-r1 and again I can't boot the WinXP installation on IDE.
What the hell are you doing?
I don't know what's wrong but qemu-kvm works with Windows Vista and above much better than with Windows XP atm. Windows Server 2008 boots on it's own even with the non-signed viostor drivers.
