Dear All,
I hope this isn't a stupid question, but I can't find the answer to it
anywhere. I have copied across the windows ME partition from an old
machine, using
dd if=/dev/hda2 | ssh address@hidden "cat > hda2.img"
This has worked, and I can mount the filesystem fine.
Is there any way I can boot this image using QEMU? i.e. there is no boot
sector, and I've not copied the rest of the drive to save space.
The obvious solution doesn't work:
qemu -boot c -snapshot -hda hda2.img
Thanks very much,
Richard
