Subject: [Qemu-devel] booting a linux kernel from NFS
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2006 17:46:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <452BC045.20905@bluegap.ch> (raw)

Hi,

I get this error, when I don't give qemu a 'hda':

A disk image must be given for 'hda' when booting a Linux kernel.

Why is that? Isn't it completely legal to start without a IDE drive? For 
example with:

qemu \
   -kernel linux-test/bzImage-2.6.18 \
   -append "root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=172.20.0.1:/testing_root \
            ip=172.20.0.10::172.20.0.1:255.255.0.0:node1:eth0:off \
            ide2=noprobe ide3=noprobe ide4=noprobe" \
   -net nic,vlan=0,model=ne2k_isa \
   -net tap,vlan=0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -m 10


Regards

Markus
