Subject: [9fans]  Virtual PC + Win64 = i/o errors
Topicbox-Message-UUID: d22d666c-ead4-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

I recently switched to Windows XP x64 Edition on my two 64-Bit x86 =
systems.  Ever since, I've had trouble with Virtual PC, where I run a =
couple of Plan 9 VMs.  I was wondering if anyone has seen similar =
issues:

I copied over a virtual machine from a 32-bit host, where it was running =
happily.  I also get the same errors during the install process, just =
after it tries to format the fossil.  Below are the relevant messages =
from the boot process:

...

 part=3Ddata block 21801: i/o error
...

I get several subsequent messages that say basically the same thing, =
with different block numbers, but the machine never finishes booting.
Has anyone seen anything similar?  Is this a Plan 9 bug, Windows x64 =
bug, or Virtual PC x64 bug?

Many thanks in advance!
