I run QEMU like this: $ qemu-system-i386 slackware-14.1-install-dvd.iso I have also tested with the "-enable-kvm" and the "-m 1000" options. And QEMU is does not work. I mean, after 10 minutes, nothing is displayed on the screen, I am not able to see the Slackware installer. Triaging old bug tickets... can you still reproduce this issue with the latest version of QEMU? Or could we close this ticket nowadays? I have just tested with QEMU 2.10.0 on Slackware 14.2 and Slackware64 14.2. I run QEMU like this: $ qemu-system-i386 slackware-14.1-install-dvd.iso It works perfectly now. It is fixed. Thanks for checking it again!
