Hello,

I'm using fedora 7 with fedora 3.1 and I have no idea how to include a floppy drive to a HVM and boot from there.

I tried it with:

fda = '/path/bootnet.img'

and

fda ='/dev/fd0'


I switched on the qemu monitor with monitor=1 and switched with Control+Alt+2 to the
monitor window.

The floppy drive is listeted there, however there is no file assigned to the drive.

I don't no know what is wrong with this assignment.

Can someone help me with this problem?

Best regards,
Andreas
Why would you want to? Why not use a CD image?
