Re: [Qemu-devel] wrong bios.bin file in Ubuntu Linux 7.10 causes blue screen on w2k guest

Hello Soren,

Thank you for your response; I think the file can be found here:

http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/qemu/pc-bios/?root=qemu

BIOS.bin

As far as I understand Qemu uses the BIOS from the Bochs project and the 
diff is applied for Qemu and it becomes the Qemu BIOS. I think every 
Qemu installation should use this Qemu BIOS, the BIOS that is made for 
this project and not the original Bochs BIOS. Are you able to fix this 
in Ubuntu?

BTW the Ubuntu has the same problem like Windows, if I try to start a 
image of Ubuntu with the wrong BIOS it crashes too.
