I have basically built 2.6.35 with make oldconfig from a working 2.6.34.
Latter works fine in kvm while 2.6.35 hangs very early. I see nothing after
grub (have early printk and verbose bootup enabled), just a blinking VGA
cursor and CPU at 100%.

Config is attached. Any ideas what options I could toggle to debug this? I
tried gzip instead of lzma but it isn't that.

Thanks,

Tvrtko

Just discovered I did not removed the quiet boot option, what I thought I
have.. with that removed I see that it hangs just after "Booting the kernel."

Please copy kvm(a)vger.kernel.org on kvm issues.
