Package: qemu
Version: 0.10.5-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
while:
/usr/bin/qemu -no-kqemu -m 512 -smp 1 -drive
file=/var/scratch/vm/images/lenny-i386-ro.img,if=ide,index=0 -boot c
works and the machine boots from the emulated IDE drive neither
/usr/bin/qemu -no-kqemu -m 512 -smp 1 -drive
file=/var/scratch/vm/images/lenny-i386-ro.img,if=scsi,index=0 -boot c
nor
/usr/bin/qemu -no-kqemu -m 512 -smp 1 -drive
file=/var/scratch/vm/images/lenny-i386-ro.img,if=virtio,index=0 -boot c
does. The bios fails to detect the disk for booting:
Booting from Hard Disk...
Boot failed: could not read the boot disk
FATAL: No bootable device.
I also tried the boot=on that exists in KVM but that doesn't seem to be
accepted by qemu.
Cheers,
-- Guido
