I think you were right. I tried installing 14.2 using QEMU 4.1.0-rc1 and no kernel panic happened.

I want to use Steam to play some games. But Steam is an i686 app, and I am on Salix64 14.2. Does Slackware multilib work on Salix?

When installing Salix on my laptop I properly set up the partition table to have everything the installer needs. It properly formated swap and root but not the EFI System Partition. I had to manually format the EFI System Partition as VFAT.

I can run everything on QEMU but not Salix.

Oh ok.

I can run QEMU on Salix but not Salix on QEMU

It's because of Slackware-current

Sometimes you want to have newer software that Salix 14.2 or Slackware 14.2 do not offer, but Slackware-current offers that piece of software. But if you want Slapt-get or Slapt-src then the only choice is Slackel. But some like Salix more then Slackel. So will there be a Salix-current?

When running Salix OS 13.37 or newer it kernel panics on QEMU. Is there a fix for that problem?

The only thing I will have to do is fix the dpi using XFCE settings and by using XRandR.
