qemu boot of live USB image hangs loading initrd.img
I've just installed qemu-0.9.0-5 and the kqemu accelerator on my BLAG 70001 (derived from Fedora 7) desktop. When I attempt to bring up a live USB image of either BLAG, Damn Small Linux or Puppy Linux, it never seems to get past the "Loading initrd.img..." message. I invoke the image as follows:
Code:
qemu -m 512 -hda /dev/sde1 |
Resolution
Problem was resolved by creating a qcow2 image and then booting from that:
Code:
pablo@brixton=> mkdir qemu |
