Triaging old bug tickets... can you still reproduce this issue with the
latest version of QEMU? Or could we close this ticket nowadays?

Title:
  12.04 guest hangs on a 14.04 host  server with cirrus graphics

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete
Status in qemu package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  A new 12.04.4 server guest installation hangs on a 14.04 server host
  machine.

  I did the following:

  Created a new Virtual Machine with the Ubuntu 12.04 template using 
virt-manager
  Ran through the installation without a hitch to install a LAMP+SSH server. 
All standard options apart from that.
  On reboot the 12.04 guest started but then hung after doing fsck step.
  Trying different options (change disk driver, etc) made it progress a couple 
more steps but still hung.

  The thing that fixed it in the end was to switch to a VGA display
  driver, away from the default.
