Backup Using Qemu

[sonu]

I am using Windows Vista and Qemu to run tinycorelinux.

I have tried many ways to boot tcl so I can back it up...one method I used is DSL qemu persistent command like so

Code: [Select]

START qemu\qemu.exe -L qemu/ -no-kqemu -m 128 -soundhw es1370 -localtime -kernel linux24 -initrd minirt24.gz -hda KNOPPIX/knoppix -hdb qemu/harddisk -append "qemu frugal quiet restore=hdb mydsl=hdb/mydsl noscsi nousb nofirewire atapicd noideraid noacpi acpi=off noapm noagp ide1=noprobe ide2=noprobe nomce"
and I modified it to:

Code: [Select]

START qemu\qemu.exe -L qemu/ -no-kqemu -m 512 -kernel bzImage -initrd tinycore.gz -hda tinycore/tinycore -append "quiet noscsi ide1=noprobe ide2=noprobe nomce tce=hdb restore=hdb"
however this gives me a kernel panic error...

If anybody has detailed instructions on how backup restore using Qemu with windows (Vista) host machine..please let me know.

If you are using the qemu in DSL, it is too old.
