[Bug 589063] Re: Windows Server 2008 won't boot with more than 4 vCPUs

[Nigel Jones]

I've had a bit more of a look...

I have been experimenting w/ Windows 2008 64-bit original release
installing the Enterprise edition.

Lucid ships with seabios 0.5.1-0ubuntu2 which experiences the issue.
Maverick ships with seabios 0.6.0-0ubuntu1 which from my testing doesn't.

I did a quick rebuild of 0.6.0-0ubuntu1 for Lucid, and I can boot a 5
vCPU Enterprise VM okay, which I couldn't before.

So it looks like the issue is somewhere upstream between Jan 2010 and
early July 2010...
