qemu on linux doesn't boot for winxp install via usb
hi guys,
I try to install windows xp via qemu. I can only boot from usb and somehow it is my problem.
I run a Winxp/xubuntu10.04 Dualboot-system with some virtual drives in windows ( till letter f:? ).
at qemu I created an image from 30Gigabytes and entered this command from the imagefile's directory :
"sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -localtime -usbdevice -hda /dev/sdb -m 384 -boot d winxp.img"
the answer is :
"qemu-system-x86_64: -boot d: drive with bus=0, unit=0 (index=0) exists"
I had to set the usb-stick in the fstab file with this command :
"UUID=X /media/usb vfat rw,users,noauto,umask=000 0 0"
anybody experienced the same problem?
I would appreciate any kind of help

Why are you using "-boot d"? 'd' is the first CD-ROM and you have not
given any -cdrom ISO image.

hey stefan,
I didn't find any manual for installing via usb,
but I tried various letters till "g".
what letter would you suggest?
on my usb drive I have a linux bootable xp partition.
or should I try to boot from a virtual drive via .iso image?
thank you
