Hello, I am following this guide http://www.virtuatopia.com/index.php/Using_QEMU_Disk_Images_for_Xen_DomainU_Systems to setup a Linux domU, which is distributed in 5 CD ROM. I have the .iso files of these cd roms and I could launch the installation using the following command: qemu-system-x86_64 -hda linux.img -cdrom linux-server-i386-disc1.iso -boot d -m 512 -net nic -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no The problem now is how to change the cd-rom during the installation. I''ve read this: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-12/msg00633.html after a Google research but I think this won''t allow me to solve the problem. Is it possible to change the cd-rom, which is an ISO file in this case? -- Flavio _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Then to change the iso cd I have done as it follows: (qemu) change ide1-cd0 /path/to/new/image.iso And it worked. I hope this would help someone just in case of necessity. -- Flavio _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
the qemu console is a very useful gem that i didnt find until recently, there all kinds of neat things one can do with it On Mon, Oct 24, 2011 at 1:11 PM, Flavio <fbcyborg@gmail.com> wrote:> On 24 October 2011 18:45, Flavio <fbcyborg@gmail.com> wrote: > > Is it possible to change the cd-rom, which is an ISO file in this case? > I have tried to do the following: > in the qemu window, I pressed ctrl+alt+2 and I get the (qemu) console. > Then to change the iso cd I have done as it follows: > > (qemu) change ide1-cd0 /path/to/new/image.iso > > And it worked. > I hope this would help someone just in case of necessity. > > -- > Flavio > > _______________________________________________ > Xen-users mailing list > Xen-users@lists.xensource.com > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users >_______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
