It looks like the "short" -drive if=ide option does not connect the created drive to any bus at all. With the above command, or with -drive if=ide,index=*,bus=*, info qtree does not show the drive at all. While -drive if=none,id=X -device ide-cd,drive=X connects the drive to the right bus just fine. Again, should this drive be visible in qtree? At least with -M pc, similarly added devices are shown properly there. Thanks, /mjt
