How did you ever get Windows XP Pro loaded? I have an upgrade version or Windows XP Home, an upgrade version of Windows 98se, and a full version of Windows 95. Windows XP boots fine in qemu-kvm, ut it asks that I insert a previous version as proof. I do so, using 'eject (-f) cdrom' to change the CD. Windows XP tells me this is not a valid version. I have tried it with both Win98se and Win95. I have also tried installing Win98se and Win95, but qemu-kvm and libvirtmanager both run briefly, just a flash and crash. So fast that I can just barely see some output. The valid Windows disks, 98se and 95, do not seem to be recognized. I have tried to make images of them, but the result is the same. Windows XP boots fine, but I am not able to validate it with my valid previous versions. I have been working on this problem for weeks, have searched myriad different sites, but there is no information available. So how did you get Windows installed in the first place?
