Hi all,
Earlier I posted a message about the I/O error when I tried to load an image 
file I created. My host OS is Debian Linux and I'm trying to run Win98 as the 
guest.  When I invoke qemu hdb.gcow the Grub boot screen comes up in a 
window. I choose my Win98 installation and it gives me the I/O error replace 
disk. Any key exits the window. I can launch another Linux distro that I have 
on my machine, from the same grub menu that starts with the invocation of 
qemu. 

I've looked at the user documentation and I don't find it very helpful. I 
don't care to work this out myself If I can be pointed in the right 
direction. 

Here's what I have done.
1) Download and compile qemu
2) Create an image file (and the problem might be in that I created it 
incorrectly, I simply don't know.)
3) Run qemu hdb.gcow

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
