I first tried using kernel 2.6.31-rc1 on openSUSE 11.2 Milestone1 on a
4P box. All other VM's, Windows and Linux work, currently running
openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 3 with 2.6.31-rc3. Verified the .iso is good.

Is this a regression from previous kernel versions? What userspace are
you using?

Opensuse Milestones are testing versions in at best alpha state.

Virtualbox works properly running Opensolaris on my machines, with any
2.6.31-rc kernel released, including rc4 and git versions (opensuse 11.1
based).

openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 4 and it boots OK - a 200G disk image used.

Wait, are you using kqemu or kvm?

Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic.

You're not using KVM. "Qemu" is the non-KVM version.
Maybe uli activated the preliminary kvm support in there, but if you
want the real deal, install the "kvm" package and use /usr/bin/qemu-kvm.

Thanks, I shall check that out, no mention of x86_64, but I shall have a
look at the stuff below.
>From Documentation/ia64/kvm.txt
1. Get the kvm source from git.kernel.org.
Userspace source:
git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm-userspace.git

Sid.

Thanks, I had kvm-kmp-default locked, so that's no doubt why kvm isn't
installed.
