[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1314667] Building a USB-Drive with EasyToBoot (E2B) and PMPrebUSB

[Ohlerth Hans <hohlerth@t-online.de>]

Hello Steve, I had a lot of trouble over the weekend building a 
sufficiently working bootable "USB-Rescue-Drive". I summed it up in an 
attached  Word-Dokument and I am sure, you have the knowledge to solve 
my problems. For your detailed help I will expect with lots of kind regards

Title:
  PMPrebUSB - appcrash of qemu in Win-7-64bit

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  I am not sure if this issue is a bug of qemu or by Win-7.
  I want to test in advance with QEMU the ability if my USB-Rescue-Drive is 
  booting correctly. I have Win-7-64 and run qemu v.o.15.1.0 out of the installed RMPrepUSB v.2.1.719 
  program. The settings for the preparation of my USB drive were FAT32 boot as
  HD, bootloader WinPE/Win-7/Vista, set for running iso-files directly in %_ISO
  \MAINMENU\Hiren’sBootCD.iso. When I run Qemu I get the messages in the cmd starting window it says:

  Administrator: RMPrepUSB QEMU Launcher
  **************************************
  EXECUTING "C:\Program Files (x86)\RMPrepUSB\qemu\STARTFROMUSB.cmd"

  Win-7: in the second window appears:
