Or maybe the assumption is wrong - after emerging nbd, I still get this when I
try to modprobe nbd, which is required for running qemu-nbd:
modprobe: FATAL: Module ndb not found in directory /lib/modules/4.19.72-gentoo
Can anyone explain how to run qemu-nbd on gentoo?
On ubuntu, one would do this:
sudo modprobe nbd
qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 drive.vdi
You can only modprobe kernel modules, so you need to have nbd compiled
as a module to your kernel to make this work.
"to [my] kernel" ... why doesn't the ebuild do that? That shouldn't
require rebuilding the kernel or touching /boot
You could also compile it directly into your kernel, then you could
skip directly to step 2.
