[Qemu-devel] Guest moved used index from 0 to 1796

[Rick Vernam]

I don't have nearly enough info to file a proper bug report.

I am running qemu-kvm-0.13.0 rc1
starting qemu like so:
/root/qemu/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu host -enable-kvm -drive 
file=/root/qemu/w2k3_server.raw,if=virtio,aio=native -net 
nic,model=virtio,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 -net tap,ifname=tap0 -localtime -
usb -usbdevice tablet -vga std -vnc :25581 -monitor stdio -m 512 -runas rick

When I reboot the guest OS, Qemu will quit during guest POST with the 
following message:
Guest moved used index from 0 to 1796

I've tried a few different scenarios, ie maintain or close VNC connection, vary 
some command line arguments, etc.  The failure mode is the same.

I noticed this failure with qemu-0.13.0-rc0, qemu-0.13.0-rc1 & qemu-
kvm-0.13.0-rc1

I haven't put this into production yet, so I can still afford downtime & re-
compiles...etc.

thanks..
