This is normal behavior. -cdrom expects valid media for inserting into the vm. The vm will emulate a cdrom drive by default even if you leave off -cdrom (the vm will have an empty virtual cdrom tray). You can use the qemu monitor to insert media later during the vm session. ie: Press ctrl-alt-2 to go to the qemu monitor (qemu) change cdrom /dev/cdrom Press ctrl-alt-1 to go back to the guest vga output. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
