What about something like -hdX test.iso,hw=cdrom with default hw being disk?
And why not a shorted and more standard solution? -ideN [hd:|cd:]filename Examples: -ide0 /tmp/myimage.dsk Set primary master as harddisk (hd: is the default) -ide1 hd:/tmp/myimage.dsk Set primary slave as harddisk (hd: is not necessary in this case, as it's the default). -ide3 cd:/dev/cdrom Set secondary slave as cdrom using device /dev/cdrom -ide0 cd:/tmp/myimage.iso Set primary master as cdrom using an ISO image file. Of course, the previous parameters (hda, hdb, hdc, hdd and cdrom) should be also available for compatibility reasons. And you could also add -fd0 (for -fda) and -fd1(for -fdb) for consistency with the rest of parameters. Just my two cents. _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
