Re: [Qemu-discuss] How do I mount a virtfs directory so that it be D: on guest ?

VirtFS speaks 9p protocol. AFAIK no Windows drivers exist to support it, 
so you won't be able to see files on the guest side.

Sorry, cetainly basic, but I hwave not found on google...


Windows itself assigns drive letters to disk volumes that it sees. 
This would be an MS-Windows issue. In the XP days, you could monkey 
around with drive assignments within Windows itself. These settings 
may still exists, buried deep somewhere inside Windows 10, but it's 
better to let the beast use whatever drive letters in wants to use.
