Stefan, you fixed this in QEMU 24 Jan 2011 so this bug can be marked as Fixed Released?
SEE: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-01/msg02425.html Append ",removable=on" to a device definition for USB Mass Storage Devices to override the removable bit (but off by default): > qemu -usb > -drive if=none,file=test.img,cache=none,id=disk0 > -device usb-storage,drive=disk0,removable=on However, I cannot see a way to set "removable=on" for usb-storage devices started via libvirt (in 12.04, with libvirt-bin 0.9.8-2ubuntu17.1 and virt-manager 0.9.1-1ubuntu5.1). So, is a feature request required for virt-manager to expose this option for virtual disks (default to 'on' for bus='usb') and add support to libvirt's XML to set "removable=on" ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/686613 Title: USB MSD are not marked as removable Status in QEMU: Confirmed Bug description: Filed from Fedora bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=589130 Guests can access USB Mass Storage Device, but fail to mark them as removable.
