Hi Avi,

no I'm using a partition as a drive, here's my command-line:
taskset 0x00000002 /usr/X11R6/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -usb -drive 
file=/dev/hda2,cache=off -m 1536 -net nic,macaddr=$MACADDR -net 
tap,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -no-acpi -monitor stdio -L /usr/X11R6/share/qemu 
-usbdevice tablet -boot c -localtime

(I give only one CPU core of the core2duo to the virtualization)
$MACADDR was computed before.

Best regards,

Erik
