similar to: CD Rom problem with install

Jason, I found that I had to manually edit the VM config file to add the cdrom in the Disk section. For example I added: Disk = [ "file:/location/disk.img,had,w" , "file:/location/en_ws_2003_ent_sp2_vl.is,hdb:cdrom,r"] Where /location is the directory you have the ISO image stored. It then is able to boot and mount the CD-ROM on the 2nd boot. Good luck, -Peter Subject:

I have a CentOS 5.6 system with a AMD Sempron(tm) Processor LE-1300 (which does not provide hardware virtualization support, so I can't use the --cdrom option) and I am *trying* to install FC15 as a guest O/S using a local FC15 DVD-ROM image. Everything work until the installer *insists* on firing up the network to get the repo data, etc. I have a *dial-up* Internet connection and this is a

Mount CD ROM iso during kickstart postinstall CentOS 5.2 i386 I''m doing a xen virtual machine installation from a DVD iso image with a kickstart file to set network and run scripts and such in the postinstall section. During the installation the DVD iso is listed as device /tmp/cdrom and mounted on /mnt/source. Once the installation is done and the post install starts the /tmp/cdrom

Is it possible to share a cdrom via Samba? I can share the /mnt/cdrom directory and see it from the PCs, but how does one take care of the mount/umount commands that are needed? Jason

The current add_cdrom way basically appends a new raw "-cdrom /path" parameter to the qemu invocation (even when using libvirt as backend), hence such images are seen as "CD-ROM drives" inside the appliance. However, there is no need for such particular behaviour, as they need to be handled as normal (read-only) drives. Adding CD-ROM disk images as drives also changes the

hi, all i want to create cd-rom with asterisk. how it possible. when i put disk in cdrom it boot automatifcally and auto-start installation like TRIXBOX. any idea. thnks, Bhrugu Mehta

I attempted to run Frogger under Wine, but it asked me to insert the Frogger CD, even though it was already inserted and mounted (and the CD is configured in wine.conf). When this happened, Wine gave the following message: err:cdrom:CDROM_GetLabel We don't have a way of determining the label of a mixed mode CD - Linux doesn't allow raw access !! Okay, so Wine could not get the label

The current add_cdrom way basically appends a new raw "-cdrom /path" parameter to the qemu invocation (even when using libvirt as backend), hence such images are seen as "CD-ROM drives" inside the appliance. However, there is no need for such particular behaviour, as they need to be handled as normal (read-only) drives. Adding CD-ROM disk images as drives also changes the

Hi, My first e-mail... my apologies if this is not the appropriate e-mail list. My goal is to *write* from the guest OS to a CD or DVD reader/writer on my host system. Currently, the write operation is failing. I believe it is because the virtual CD-ROM device is set to be "readonly". Is it possible to write to a QEMU CDROM device and, if so, how? (The host machine's CD-ROM

I'm running a (language-learning) program in Wine which requires access to the CD ROM drive, but it appears that it can't find it! How do I tell it how to access the CD ROM drive? Andy

Ok, i'm terrible with computers, so i would like an explanation in simple terms. So I'm trying to play a game using Wine, I've installed the game, but when i click play, a box pops up that says "No CD-ROM drive found" I would like to know how to fix this problem.

I'd like to take advantage of the small, compressed Linux systems such as Knoppix or BeatrIX, but I can't have a CD rom on my system. (A project's marketing requirement.). So I figure I could use something like SYSLINUX or ISOLINUX to do it for me, but there is some magic in the process (the sequence of booting) that eludes me. 1/ mbr (from SYSLINUX) installed on hard drive... and

Sorry, I know this is not really libvirt related, but I'm searching for a solution sind about an hour and cannot find anything that helps me ... Ok, I used to install a standard debian in a kvm instance, and removed the virtual cd-rom after installation.
