It would be nice to have access to raw partitions in order to run linux installers using qemu. I can successfully install several boot loaders using uefi, so I gues this feature would be very helpful. +Thanks! + +I am not sure whether I have understood your request completely. QEMU can access raw partitions if the OS supports them. MS Windows supports physical partitions and calls them \\.\PhysicalDrive0, \\.\PhysicalDrive1 and so on. Admin rights are required to access these devices. Depending on your shell, the backslashes might need to be escaped, or you will have to write //./PhysicalDrive0. + +Using raw partitions from QEMU can be really dangerous, so you should know what you are doing, overwise the result might be that your windows tablet no longer boots at all. + +Well, the tablet calls \\.\PhysicalDrive0 to the entire disk and +\\.\PhysicalDrive2 a mounted pendrive. Looking at disk administration,, +\\.\PhysicalDrive0 has the following partition schema: +- 2GB Recover partition +- 500M EFI partition +- 15,04 Windows C: Partition +- 6G Raw partition (no data, here is where I want to install linux) +- 5,46G Recover partition +The idea is to install a linux distro in the 6G partition, obviously I +wouldn't use the partition editor of the installer nor install a bootloader +in theese conditions. If I need to modify the partitions I would do in +advance from Windows, and for the booting I would use refind or grub, which +both work as I could test. + +El Wed Jan 28 2015 at 4:40:48, Stefan Weil (<email address hidden>) +escribió: + +> I am not sure whether I have understood your request completely.

The tablet had an uefi that didn't allow +pendrive boot, but if it could be done what I proposed with qemu, a linux +distro could be booted with qemu and this installed manually in a +partition. The Uefi of the tablet did allow a grub install and also I could +install another bootloader, but any of them recognized pendrives. +So, personally I don't care anymore for now.
