Title: ISO to Qemu img -how do I get this?
Post by: PF4TinyCore on October 17, 2012, 03:49:53 PM

Hi all

I need to convert the ISO image of TinyCore to the .img format supported by Qemu
I am a little bit confused, I know that I need to use qemu-img for that but I would like to know what image format to use for that or any other switches that I have to use with this command

thanks
PF
