[Bug 746114] [NEW] FreeBSD freeze during boot when running in Qemu KVM on AMD and Intel

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I'm running latest kernel on 11.04 and just installed the kvm tools.

After creating a virtual machine using the gui and starting it the vm
freezes almost instantly, the bootloader timer of freebsd either freezes
directly or ticks down no further than 7.

This seems to be the same bug as reported on this post in a mailing list:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg51211.html

where also a fix is suggested:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg51226.html
with more details in:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg51244.html

With KVM disabled FreeBSD does boot, but my machine should be capable of
running KVM and FreeBSD should be able to run as DomU
