Description
Lately I'm forced to test haiku under qemu (it has been some time). I found out it doesn't boot. It locks up on the logo screen. Attached is the serial log output. This is under ubuntu 7.10 with qemu 0.9.0.

Same here. In the meantime, you can boot Haiku in VMWare Player, which appears to be not supported by 7.10 at the moment, but when you download the player from the VMWare site, you can install it (run the install script with sudo and answer yes to pretty much everything) and it works fine and runs Haiku well.

Yeah, that's basically why I switched to qemu :)

Yeah I've read about this solution, thank you. But being a lazy man, I'd prefer the "ready" package :). I hoped they provided it earlier, though... sigh, I guess I'll have to dowload the player from the official site...

I can reproduce the problem here as well; it seems to be the same bug that makes "sync" problematic in VMware, so I guess Qemu has improved/changed its IDE emulation. In any way, it boots fine when you turn off IDE DMA in the boot menu. HTH until it gets fixed :-)

That works, indeed. Weird, I was sure I checked all the items in the safe boot menu...

It works on a win32 QEMU (at work) and an image from the build factory (hrev22728). I think this is a GCC4 build, maybe this has an influence?

Did you use qemu 0.9.0 or another version ?
BTW I hoped this was fixed by Ingo in hrev22975 but it's not the case. So it's probably unrelated to #985.
