Windows 2000 running on Banana, refuses to boot (fixed)
Hey,
I am trying to run Qemu with Windows 2000 on a BananaPI, but my problem is a bit weird.
The Windows 2000 setup is writing files into the image of the virtual machine, the file also gets bigger but it sems like Windows 2000 dosent boot from the HDD, and starts everytime from the ISO even when the setup was finished.
When i force the VM to boot from the HDD, it says:
"error while loading the operating system".
I am using Qemu 1.1.2 via apt-get in raspberry-pi repositorys with Raspberrian for BananaPI.
Any idea?

Have you tried to access the HDD with GPARTED?
@netomx Booting gparted, ends in endless call traces and errors mesages YOLO.
Try to compile your QEMU, I had errors with precompiled binaries

Would you mind posting a tutorial on how to install Windows 2000 on a Banana Pi (Including the drivers part)?
Im sure many including me would be very interested in that
@TehEnforce Qemu uses one core, not 2 cores so its slow as fuck. No need to install drivers.
You will need something ARM based, with a lot power at one core.
And then you can think about installing drives and bring it into the network.
