Re: [Qemu-devel] Re: winblows 2k on OSX?

[Jason <jason@monsterjam.org>]

well, I was using that actually, but I just wanted to doublecheck..
I created a blank image file, and when I run that, I get

mybox:~/qemu_images root# /opt/local/bin/qemu win2k.img -cdrom /dev/disk1s0 -boot d
/dev/disk1s0: Device busy
qemu: could not open hard disk image '/dev/disk1s0
mybox:~/qemu_images root# 

thats after I ejected, re-inserted the win2k cdrom. Im not sure why its busy, 
but Im sure that /dev/disk1s0 is the CDROM on OSX.

regards,
Jason
