The i686 varieties will boot under qemu-kvm. It is only the 64-bit images that get the expr aborts. All tests were run under a 64-bit version of 12.1.
I did check, and the kvm shell can handle the divides and multiplies without crashing.
OMG! I just figured what causes this.
Andreas Schwab added gmp support to coreutils and that library (sit down if you're standing!) has a fixed list of supported CPUs - and well, kvm is not supported.
My qemu-kvm has a Intel family 6, model 2 - and this causes an abort, it needs a minimum of model 15 (my laptop has 23, "core2"). I don't know either why kvm emulates such an old model - this is betwen Pentium Pro and Pentium II, neither supports 64bit).
But I don't understand why gmp can't take a default then instead of aborting ;(

Yesterday I tried to install openSUSE 12.2 KDE Live Cd Build 387 on an old Compaq Presario with intel Celeron CPU(32-bit), 2.53 MHZ. System with 2GB Memory. Just installing to do testing. Installed completely but everytime I try to boot it gets a kernel panic before the KDM sign in screen comes up. Is it possible the above CPU support issue mentioned above, is the problem? If Not I will try to get more data and report to bugzilla.
