Public bug reported: hi guys, I try to install windows xp via qemu. I can only boot from usb and somehow it is my problem. I run a Winxp/xubuntu10.04 Dualboot-system with some virtual drives in windows ( till letter f:? ). at qemu I created an image from 30Gigabytes and entered this command from the imagefile's directory :
"sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -localtime -usbdevice -hda /dev/sdb -m 384 -boot d winxp.img" the answer is : "qemu-system-x86_64: -boot d: drive with bus=0, unit=0 (index=0) exists" I had to set the usb-stick in the fstab file with this command : "UUID=X /media/usb vfat rw,users,noauto,umask=000 0 0" anybody experienced the same problem? I would appreciate any kind of help greetz ** Affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/723460 Title: qemu on linux doesn't boot for winxp install via usb Status in QEMU: New Bug description: hi guys, I try to install windows xp via qemu.
