Subject: [Qemu-devel] A disk read error occurred
Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2008 23:23:18 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <478c82f00806301323y2679acdatcc102c13d44d3287@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

For some reason when I try to boot qemu with -hda /dev/sda (or -hda
/dev/hda), i.e. to use raw disk, it fails with the above error message
- "A disk read error occurred". This happens only on IBM/Lenovo
laptops (tried a few models), while it works just fine on any other
desktop or laptop I can get my hands on. Probably has something to do
with bios...

Any suggestions ?

Thanks
