DSL Embedded (in QEMU) and Physical DrivesForum: DSL Embedded Topic: DSL Embedded (in QEMU) and Physical Drives started by: DeeJay Posted by DeeJay on April 20 2005,10:10
Could others with experience in this area confirm that an OS (such as DSL) running in a QEMU virtual machine DOES NOT have access to 'real' physical filestore on whatever machine is hosting the QEMU environment?(I know this is a QEMU issue rather than anything specific to DSL, but DSL seems to be one of the most widespread adopters of Qemu, so users here are most likely to know the answer.) If it IS possible for DSL-in-QEMU to Mount a filesystem that actually exists on the underlying ('real'/'host') machine (as distinct from mounting a pre-prepared 'image' of such a filesystem), could someone give a recipe please, or refer to existing documentation? Many thanks - DeeJay Posted by Onyarian on April 20 2005,11:23
I work usually in linux with vmware with w98 as guest, I have access to the host filesystem of linux via samba.In this case qemu is the same, DSL is the guest OS, and you can access the filesystem of the host OS configuring the samba. In this case, if the host have mounted filesystems, you can access this filesystems. Onyarian Posted by roberts on April 20 2005,19:55
