[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1368204] Re: WinME isn't able to detect QEMU's cdrom drive and other hard drives automatically

[Thomas Huth]

Looking through old bug tickets... can you still reproduce this issue
with the latest version of QEMU? Or could we close this ticket nowadays?

Title:
  WinME isn't able to detect QEMU's cdrom drive and other hard drives
  automatically

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On a fresh installation of Windows Millennium (WinME) in qemu, Windows
  Me isn't able to find the CD-ROM drive or additional hard drives other
  than -hda at first place.

  Only if i add manually an IDE controller driver in Windows ME's device 
manager, the CD-ROM inserted in QEMU is found.
  Thus an IDE controller isn't found automatically either.

  This shouldn't be the case. On normal real hardware, Windows ME would
  find at least one IDE or SCSI controller.

  The command line that was used is the following:
  sudo /usr/bin/qemu-system-i386 -hda WinME_QEMU.img -cdrom drivers.iso -boot c 
-no-acpi -no-hpet -soundhw sb16 -net nic -cpu pentium3 -m 256 -vga cirrus   

  qemu's version is:
  qemu-system-i386 --version
