List-Id: qemu-devel.nongnu.org List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: "qemu-devel@nongnu.org" Hi folks, Is it possible to boot from non-ide disks? kvm has extboot and the -drive ...,boot=on syntax to use it. That isn't in upstream qemu though. Is there another way to boot from non-ide disks? Or is extboot just not yet merged? Or are there other plans? cheers, Gerd
