Easy PEasy and qemu

alaios · 04-27-2009, 01:20 PM

I need some help make qemu run easy peasy (installed in my usb flash disk)

I:\>qemu\qemu.exe -L qemu/ -no-kqemu -m 128 -soundhw es1370 -localtime -kernel u
bnkern -initrd ubninit
A disk image must be given for 'hda' when booting a Linux kernel

Where is the disk image in casper-rw fs?

Ok guys with some practice now i am at this
qemu\qemu.exe -L qemu/ -no-kqemu -m 128 -soundhw es1370 -localtime -kernel ubnkern -initrd ubninit -hda casper/filesystem.squashfs

This starts loading but ends with lot of exceptions!!! Whats should i check next?

Hmmm..it may be because there is no "-hda ?/?" in the line.

Are you trying to boot a iso image or what?
it may not work on other than DSL/Puppy...

but there is "-hda casper/filesystem.squashfs"

Ok i still keep trying..
The os starts booting but it ends with the following message:

Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
-Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
-Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
-Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! does not exist. Dropping to a shell!

I ll keep trying to find out if i can fix it but still some help can make the difference
