qemu-kvm emulates an IDE disk connected to PIIX IDE controller. If your windows is prepared to boot from this controller, it will most likely work. Or else you'll have to prepare it to boot from it. The issue is exactly the same as if you moved your whole disk with windows to a different computer with different hardware. Which is not in scope of this mailinglist really, it's windows-related question. /mjt -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
