[Qemu-discuss] Using qemu to run a physical machine in parallel

[Yassine Chaouche]

Dear qemu,

I have installed Linux Mint on my machine on /dev/sda5. Later, I 
installed MX Linux on /dev/sda9, but the installation of MX eventually 
didn't work well as I tried to do things. I need to fix MX linux, but 
each I change something I need to reboot the machine to see if it fixed 
it, and this is cumbersome/tiresome/awkward. What I would like to do is 
boot on /dev/sda5 (Linux Mint) and run MX Linux (/dev/sda9) in parallel. 
Can I achieve this with qemu ? I don't want to reinstall MX as a virtual 
machine, I would like to run and fix the already installed one.

Thanks for your tips !
