Hello. The question is: are the drive shortcuts - -cdrom, -hda, -hdb etc - supposed to work in -machine q35 too? Or are they merely ignored?
qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -cdrom foo.img this one does not boot, seabios does not see the cdrom. The same applies to qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -drive file=foo.img,media=cdrom,if=ide Should these work? The fact that they don't, -- is it intentional, or a bug? (In both cases it should be fixed - if it is intentional, the documentation should be updated to reflect the limitation, or if it's a bug, it should be fixed to let the options to work). Thanks, /mjt
