I confirm this bug has not already been reported

  • I have searched the issues and this bug has not been reported previously

Describe the bug
When the Host has less than 4 CPUs (in my case I have 2 CPUs: 1 socket, 2 cores and one thread per core)
in quickemu there is the code line 499 GUEST_CPU_CORES="1"

When starting the Windows 11 Installer ISO, quickemu outputs CPU VM: host, 1 Socket(s), 1 Core(s), 1 Thread(s) accordingly.
But when you have only 1 CPU, Windows 11 Installer says "Windows can't be installed, see https://aka.ms/WindowsSysReq"
which is "Find Windows 11 specs, features, and computer requirements"
For Processor it says 2 or more cores

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Run quickget windows 11 German
  2. Run quickemu --vm windows-11-German.conf

Expected behavior
Windows is installed

work around
add the line cpu_cores='2' to file windows-11-German.conf
