Qemu and HDD image

Everything you can't fit into other forums
  • Unfortunately, I can't explain the reason, but it works in qemu-1.2.2. I use this version to access my /dev/sda.
  • Ok, thanks.
    I will install that version.
  • Maybe to someone is useful know the warning from Qemu when trying to access /hd0/1

    Code: Select all

    main-loop: WARNING: I/O thread spun for 1000 iterations
  • I haven't found a binary for Ubuntu of Qemu 1.2 and the compilation gives some error that was fixed in a next version.
    I will see what can I do.
  • There are many flags to disable features. Try this:

    Code: Select all

    ./configure --target-list=i386-softmmu --audio-drv-list=alsa,sdl --disable-vnc --disable-bluez --disable-docs
    Works on my computer (c).
  • Thank you! I will try that in a few hours or tomorrow and I'll let you know the results.
  • Thanks dunkaist! It compiled and worked as expected.
    I set to off the option and hda.img is detected correctly as /hd0/1.
  • OpenMoon,

    these instructions are for qemu-1.2.2 which is rather outdated at the moment.

    For current qemu version just install it and then add usb drive via '-usb -usbdevice disk:format=raw:fat:.', example:

    Code: Select all

    qemu-system-i386 -soundhw hda -drive if=floppy,file=kolibri.img,format=raw -boot a -usb -usbdevice disk:format=raw:fat:. -net nic,model=ne2k_pci -net user
