Do I need to create an ISO image frommy 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 -lfrom the command line. then the dev entry will be /dev/disk# where # isthe 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.isoYou can also have a look for disk names at the system profiler (apple>about this mac>More Information. Just click on hda register card and the names of your devices are shown under "BSD-Name:". In my case, ibook G3, harddisk is /dev/disk0 and cdrom /dev/disk1. Just tried it with Qemu and it works fine.
I tried "-cdrom /dev/disk1" with a FreeDOS image mounted on "C:" and the "dir" command fails on the "D:" unit (ISO9660 CD in the drive). The "dir" command also fails on "D:" when I mount an image with "-hdb <image>". The only way I can mount an image on "D:" is to use "-cdrom <image>".
Am I doing something wrong ?------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------
