[Xen-users] Changing CD Images (ISO files) in QEMU Console
Hi, I have tried to change CD ISO images during a HVM install using the following commands but it doesn''t work. After changing the CD ISO image, it doesn''t detect the new ISO image. (qemu) eject -f hdc (qemu) change hdc /media/hitachi/cd-rom-image.iso Any ideas? -- Mr. Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming) Dip(Mechatronics) BEng(Hons)(Mechanical Engineering) Alma Maters: (1) Singapore Polytechnic (2) National University of Singapore My Primary Blog: http://teo-en-ming-aka-zhang-enming.blogspot.com My Secondary Blog: http://enmingteo.wordpress.com My Youtube videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/enmingteo Email: space.time.universe@gmail.com MSN: teoenming@hotmail.com Mobile Phone (SingTel): +65-9648-9798 Mobile Phone (Starhub Prepaid): +65-8369-2618 Age: 31 (as at 30 Oct 2009) Height: 1.78 meters Race: Chinese Dialect: Hokkien Street: Bedok Reservoir Road Country: Singapore _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

After I did a change command, I executed "info block" but it tells me "not inserted". -- Mr. Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming) Dip(Mechatronics) BEng(Hons)(Mechanical Engineering) Alma Maters: (1) Singapore Polytechnic (2) National University of Singapore My Primary Blog: http://teo-en-ming-aka-zhang-enming.blogspot.com My Secondary Blog: http://enmingteo.wordpress.com My Youtube videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/enmingteo Email: space.time.universe@gmail.com MSN: teoenming@hotmail.com Mobile Phone (SingTel): +65-9648-9798 Mobile Phone (Starhub Prepaid): +65-8369-2618 Age: 31 (as at 30 Oct 2009) Height: 1.78 meters Race: Chinese Dialect: Hokkien Street: Bedok Reservoir Road Country: Singapore On Mon, Nov 2, 2009 at 8:52 PM, Mr. Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming) < space.time.universe@gmail.com> wrote:> Hi, > > I have tried to change CD ISO images during a HVM install using the > following commands but it doesn''t work.

I think that Mr. Teo En Ming is missing his weight and color of eyes in signature. Aren''t there any rules about posting here? I understand that these are not moderated, but 17 lines of signature and only one line of meaningful text? it is pure spam, nothing else. Oh, yes, there is more. This post contains not only 17 lines of signature, but yet another 17 lines of quoted signature. Sorry for going off topic.
