Hi all, I've set up FC13 64bit on a machine with an intel i7 and 4G memory
I'm trying to get a simple virtualisation to work. I followed the
instructions here ->
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/Virtualization_Guide/sect-Virtualization-Installing_Windows_XP_as_a_fully_virtualized_guest.html
The install of XP runs fine but when it reboots to run the GUI part of
the install I get this message in the VM's console:-
Booting from Hard Disk:
A disk read error occurred
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart
It almost seems that the XP boot loader can't find the virtual disk.
I must have missed something obvious - but what?
Thanks for any pointers
Ken
