Hi,

I justed tried to create a HVM with Windows XP SP2 one two Systems I
have a around; one Box with an AMD Athlon X2 4600 (AM2, Asus Board with
nForce 590 SLI), the other with an Intel Core 2 Duo (6400, Intel Board
with G965). Those ran latest rawhide as of today (x86-Version) with
2.6.18-1.2741.fc6xen and xen-2.0.2-44

The virtual instances both get destroyed when the Setup of Windows XP
switches to protected mode (e.g. after loading all the drives when the
screen normally goes black for a moment and before the actual text-based
setup starts with EULA and stuff). Both show a similar problem [(XEN)
2b, This opcode isn't handled yet!]. Details from the AMD-Machine:

And from the Core 2 Duo:

Known problem? Worth filing a bug?
