Hello, I'm trying to install centos-4.7 under kvm (for legacy reasons). I can't get the beast installed, it crashes (see output below). I'm using: qemu 0.9.1 kvm-72 libvirt-0.4.6 kernel 2.6.26

What can I do in order to get the installation being done? The host is a x86_64 machine (debian5).

BTW, the installation for centos-5.2 works like a charm with the above configuration.

TIA Regards Michael
