Good question. Over time I've got some feedback that the whole config file mechanism is really just a second class citizen anyway. I'm happy for now (running 2.7) and don't really care too much.
Nevertheless: I'd be absolutely excited if I could reliably configure (and have nice documentation that I'd even be willing to help create) Qemu instances just with a config file ... Feel free to close this issue to get rid of old cruft ... :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1358287 Title: -readconfig file doesn't interpret memory size correctly Status in QEMU: Incomplete Bug description: I'm running Qemu 2.1 and have issues with the config file format. Specifically Qemu wrote the following snippet with '-writeconfig': [memory] size = "1024" However, upon starting a VM with this setting it only receives 128MiB (the default size). I'm reverting back to using the command line option now - that works. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1358287/+subscriptions
