| SMP works, no need to disable mpbios anymore. Must use '''if=ide''' as the scsi interface will result in sd0(siop0) errors during install; recommend using the e1000 network driver as well.

4.0 would hang on me at the same place if i booted /bsd.mp but not if i boot /bsd (uniprocessor kernel) - Buck <br/> | |||
4.5 can be made to boot by disabling mpbios as described [http://scie.nti.st/2009/10/4/running-openbsd-4-5-in-kvm-on-ubuntu-linux-9-04 here]; this is a workaround though, not a fix - Maxim | |||

| Use e1000 drivers. Install from CD works, but then you must do the following at the next boot prompt: "bsd -c", "disable mpbios", then "quit" | |||
Make this permanent by using "config -ef /bsd" as root, once everything has booted. -- Garry Dolley | |||

Note:
Qemu/kvm will likely run most production operating systems, but this page is maintained nonetheless for general information purposes. Updates are welcomed.
Windows Family
Guest | Guest bitness | Host version | Host cpu | Host bitness | Status | Comments |
Windows Small Business Server 2011 | 64 | qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.355.0.1.el6.centos.2 | Intel | 64 | Works | Installed on CentOS 6.4 x64. Virtio drivers are installed in the guest os. Host machine has a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz and 8GB RAM. The guest uses 4GB RAM and 1 CPU core. Works flawless. By Jens Voskuhl |
Windows 2012 R2 Standard | 64 | qemu-kvm.x86_64 10:1.5.3-60.el7_0.5 | Intel | 64 | Works | Installed on CentOS 7 64bit. Used Windows 2008 settings. Tested 1GB, 8GB and 16GB RAM on guest using virtio drivers. |
Windows 2012 Standard 180-days Evaluation | 64 | qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.295.el6 | Intel | 64 | Works | Installed on CentOS 6.3 64bit. Used Windows2008 settings for guest installation. By Alexander O. |
Windows 2008 Essential Business Server | 64 | qemu-kvm-0.11.0 | AMD | 64 | Works | Installed on 800 MB RAM only. Host is: Ubuntu Server 9.10 64-bit, 3 x 2.7 GHz AMD Athlon X3 425, 2 x 1 GB DDR2 667 MHz, single channel, 4 x 250 GB SATA Samsung 7200 drives: approx. 498 GB RAID 10 volume for host OS and machine images, 4 x 1 GB RAID 0 volume for swap due to low host main memory. USB hardware key works (Hasp), Virtio drivers for LAN and HDD still testing. By Tomaszg. |
Windows 2008 Small Business Server | 64 | qemu-kvm-0.11.0 | AMD | 64 | Works (reboot from guest doesn't correctly work) | Installed on 2 GB RAM, 1 CPU core. Host is: Ubuntu Server 9.10 64-bit, 2 x Six-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2425 HE, 8 x 4 GB DDR2, ISCSI for Guest discspace. Don't use virtio drivers (harddisc/network), use IDE (harddisc) and e1000 (network) emulation instead. By Mark. |
Windows 2008 Standard | 64 | qemu-kvm-0.11.0 | AMD | 64 | Works (reboot from guest doesn't correctly work) | Installed on 2 GB RAM, 1 CPU core.
