Subject: [Qemu-devel] Qemu Booting a PC without an MBR?
Date: Fri, 30 Aug 2013 08:28:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <52203B8D.5030507@kamp.de> (raw)
Hi all,
today I had the second incidence of a migrated system (copied with DD) to qemu which won't
boot. (stuck after booting from harddisk message).
Looking at sector 0 I found out that it does not have an MBR. It seems that real hardware and
I was told also vmware can cope with this.
Is there a way we can improve this? (maybe be using an open source mbr in case the mbr
section is zeroed out?)
Thanks,
Peter
