>Description:
I was trying to install Windows 2000 Professional in qemu. But it kept crashing with a stop 0x0000007B error when the install cd started.
>How-To-Repeat:
- insert a win2k pro cd (other windows versions will probably do it too, but I didn't try them.)
- qemu -hda hd.img -cdrom /dev/acd0 -boot d -win2k-hack
 (hd.img is a 2gb disk image i made by dd'ing from /dev/zero.)
- watch the pretty colors... uh, the BSOD. It happens after it loads a bunch of files and says 'Setup is starting Windows' at the bottom.
>Fix:
dd bs=2k </dev/acd0 >w2k.iso
qemu -hda hd.img -cdrom w2k.iso -boot d -win2k-hack
