Subject: [Qemu-devel] boot a preinstalled winxp on linux/x86: writing a patch...
Date: Thu, 28 Dec 2006 02:13:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200612280213.11840.rpolli@babel.it> (raw)
hi all,
I tried to boot my preinstalled winxp with
# qemu -boot c -hda /dev/hda
that's what happens:
- qemu load grub, and I select to boot winxp (grub says "chainloader +1, then
boot")
- qemu starts to load winxp, with a winxp boot screen
- qemu fails and reboots
it seems qemu stops loading winxp when /dev/hda "ends" and /dev/hda1 starts.
I could build a patch to fix it, but before start studing qemu source, I'd
like to ear from you - yes, if it was easy you guru already would have done
it!
tia,
R.
