Does qemu support boot XP from Linux?
I use Debian Linux.
apt-get install qemu

qemu  -m 256 -snapshot -hda /dev/hda

I suppose WinXP does not like to be booted in a completly different machine (copy-protection, drivers bound to the system). when trying to boot a disc in qemu it is equal to taking the physical disc to a completly different physical pc. If I remember corectly there are some guides (from Microsoft) on migrating WinXP to a new host, but it's not as easy as migrating linux for example. Different hardware profiles are an option I suppose.

With regards,

Jan
