Subject: [Qemu-devel] r6677 broke access to physical FDD on Win32
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 22:53:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49C16D71.7020104@bttr-software.de> (raw)

Hi!

If I run QEMU on Win32 with option "-fda a:", then I'm unable to access
physical floppies from guest OS. "Physical" also includes virtual drives
created by <http://chitchat.at.infoseek.co.jp/vmware/vfd.html>.

I'm also unable to boot such floppies ("-boot a"). Error message is:
"Boot failed: not a bootable floppy disk"

By doing some builds I narrowed the problem down to
<http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc?view=rev&root=qemu&revision=6677> by
Anthony Liguori.
