Title: Can't virtualize using qemu.tcz
Post by: AlejandroPadrino on November 21, 2011, 06:44:32 PM

Hello to all members,

today I was try to run CD-ROM image with qemu.tcz, but no emulation started.  Qemu appears to run without -cdrom myisoimage.iso, but setting up -cdrom myisoimage.iso does not start emulation and shows a ">" prompt.  Command line was ...

qemu -Mpc -cpu qemu32 -m 256 -boot d -cdrom myisoimage.iso

How to start emulation?

Thanks.

... I was forget:  loaded modules into script before loading qemu are ...

kvm-3.0.3-tinycore.tcz
qemu-kvm.tcz
qemu-extra.tcz
qemu.tcz

I'm using TinyCore 4.0.2

Thanks.

I'm guessing there was an accidental keypress, making Qemu go to the control console (alt-f2 if I recall), or perhaps into gpxe's console.

As a side note, if you want to use KVM accel, you only need to load qemu-kvm, and then use qemu-system-x86_64.

Hello Curaga,

can you post a sample to run any cdrom .iso image virtualized?  Kvm modules are loaded, but not enabled in qemu switch.  I was try some things founded in http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/QEMU/Monitor (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/QEMU/Monitor) but can't close window with ">" prompt, and can't run .iso image.

Thank you.

Hello Curaga,

using qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom myisoimage.iso I was get same result with QEmu, console with ">" prompt.  What's wrong?

Thank you.

I'm not sure. One thing left is to try the other, ie if this was with qemu.tcz remove it from onboot and use qemu-kvm, or vice versa.

Hello Curaga, I was test all options.  Removing Kvm and loading only QEmu, removing QEmu and loading only Kvm, and loading both at same time.  Also was try removing qemu-extra.tcz package.  No modules are used at boot.  I always use ondemand.  New builds for QEmu and Kvm packages?

Thank you.
