If I use q35 the installation is extremely slow. With extremely slow I mean, that the first few minutes (10-15 minutes) on the second installation step (copying files to disk) nothing happens. Than there is some progress, maybe until 9% and than there is "silence" for another 10 minutes or so. Therefore I used iotop (with --only option) in order to see, if there are any disk operations. But as I mentioned, only a few times qemu writes something to disk (with about < 1M/s). But most of the time there is nothing from qemu. Therefore the installation lasts over an hour. But even worse, after installation I can't boot Windows. Windows-Start-Manager tells me, that windows couldn't be loaded because the kernel is missing or corrupt (Status 0xc0000221, File: \Windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe). If I use IDE on q35 or pc-i440fx-2.6 everything works fine. There is a continuous installation progress and iotop shows continuous disk writes with max 30M/s (but also 5M/s and other values...). + +I've tried qemu 2.6.0, 2.6.1 and 2.7.0 (all versions from git). + +My host machine: +Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS +3.13.0-95-generic #142-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 12 17:00:09 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux +Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3470 CPU +16 GB RAM + + +I used the following commands: + +"Standard" command +qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -machine q35,accel=kvm -cpu host,kvm=off -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -enable-kvm -hda win7_qemu_standard_q35.qcow2 -cdrom win7proX64.iso -boot order=d + +I think by using -hda sata will be used?!? + +With explicit ahci: +qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -machine q35,accel=kvm -cpu host,kvm=off -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -enable-kvm -drive file=win7_qemu_standard_q35.qcow2,media=disk,if=none,id=sata-disk -device ich9-ahci,id=ahci -device ide-drive,drive=sata-disk,bus=ahci.0 -drive file=win7proX64.iso,media=cdrom,if=none,id=sata-cdrom -device ide-cd,drive=sata-cdrom,bus=ahci.1 -boot order=d + +I don't know if this is totally correct, because it's a little bit weird that I have to use ide-drive on a ich9 bus. + +Without kvm there is a continious disk write with 100 K/s - 5 M/s (works only with qemu 2.7.0, otherwise I get a 0x000000D1 bluescreen on the setup start screen): +qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -machine q35 -cpu IvyBridge -hda win7_qemu_standard_q35.qcow2 -cdrom win7proX64.iso -boot order=d + +But with all three commands the installed Windows is not working, because always the same error occurs: windows couldn't be loaded because kernel is missing or corrupt + +Interestingly both commands ("standard" command and with explicit ahci) works very well with a Windows 10 installation. + +In my opinion it's a "SATA problem", because if I use e.g. piix4-ide instead of ich9-ahci it works: +qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -machine q35,accel=kvm -cpu host,kvm=off -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -enable-kvm -drive file=win7_qemu_standard_q35.qcow2,media=disk,if=none,id=ide-disk -device piix4-ide,id=ide -device ide-drive,drive=ide-disk,bus=ide.0 -drive file=win7proX64.iso,media=cdrom,if=none,id=ide-cdrom -device ide-cd,drive=ide-cdrom,bus=ide.1 -boot order=d + +With this command there is a continuous disk write and the installation is bootable. + +Dennis, what's the exact version, edition, region (etc) of your Windows 7 install media? + +It's been a while since I've tried to install Windows 7 personally, but around the ~2.4 timeframe I didn't have any problems.
