I've got a bit of a weird issue. I'm using QEMU emulator version 2.11.1(Debian 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.19) And after some considerable time of not using it for 32bit installations I now find that it can no longer install some older 32 bit installations (e.g.
https://phillw.net/isos/lubuntu/natty/ ) The CPU goes to 100% and then after a while it just stops (I'm using virt-manager v1.5.1) I'm running lubuntu 18.04 (64 bit) on an i7 chipset that runs 64 bit debian / centos and MS server 2019 KVM instances via virt-manager without problems.
Phill.
