As a newbie I do have some questions. My host is Widows XP Pro and the guest is Mandrake. 1. Is there any way to access the physical cdrom drive? I have not been able to do it though I can access an iso image. 2. I don't have cygwin tools, can I make a 4GB file by appending two 2GB files ? 3. How do I get the monitor? The command window where I ran "qemu ..." doesn't seem to accept any input. Thanks again for the good work Khalid
