Hello all,
I'm new to QEMU and I'd like to know how to boot a Windows XP
installation CDROM from MacOS X. Do I need to create an ISO image from
my WXP CDROM or can I boot directly from it e.g. using "-cdrom
/dev/<device>" ?
Maybe. The device name under OS X can be found by running disktool -l
from the command line. then the dev entry will be /dev/disk# where #
is
the number you found running disktool.
Which tools are needed to create an ISO image from a CDROM ?
Probably the easiest is to use "disktool -l" to determine the device
name of the cd (which should be automounted). then do:
dd if=/dev/disk# of=image.iso
Replace the disk# with the proper disk name from disktool's output.
Michael
TIA
