<p class="MsoNormal">Wimboot is hanging on boot in a hyper-v VM. The screen it stops at says:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Get parameters: C/H/S = 1024/255/63, drives = 1<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The reported number of sectors would be correct if the VM had a disk attached, but it doesn’t so I’m a little curious as to why it thinks there is, unless wimboot fakes a 127GB disk too?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any idea why it might be hanging? I have windbg running and windbg reports that it gets as far as “Boot Debugger Initialized”.<o:p></o:p></p>
