[fedora-virt] Host lock up in F12

[Andrés García]

Hi,

I have found a way to consistently lock up a F12 host.

I had three guests, another F12 and two windows ones. I added another 
with the lastest
Mandriva x64, configured as 'kernel newer that 2.6.25 with virtio', it 
installed fined and
everything seemed to be all right.

To test what would happen  I then went to a terminal a typed 'reboot'.

On powerin on, the host would allway lock up, fortunatley it gave enough 
time to disable
Mandriva starting on boot and now it works.

Does that ring a bell? Is there a way have a guest boot five minutes 
after boot?

Problem is I don't have a serial cable, I will have to check if the 
electronics store has one.

Thanks,
Andres
