@ -227,6 +227,76 @@ Use @var{file} as CD-ROM image (you cannot use @option{-hdc} and
|
||||
@option{-cdrom} at the same time). You can use the host CD-ROM by
|
||||
using @file{/dev/cdrom} as filename (@pxref{host_drives}).
|
||||
|
||||
@item -drive @var{option}[,@var{option}[,@var{option}[,...]]]
|
||||
|
||||
Define a new drive. Valid options are:
|
||||
|
||||
@table @code
|
||||
@item file=@var{file}
|
||||
This option defines which disk image (@pxref{disk_images}) to use with
|
||||
this drive.
|
||||
@item if=@var{interface}
|
||||
This option defines on which type on interface the drive is connected.
|
||||
Available types are: ide, scsi, sd, mtd, floppy, pflash.
|
||||
@item bus=@var{bus},unit=@var{unit}
|
||||
These options define where is connected the drive by defining the bus number and
|
||||
the unit id.
|
||||
@item index=@var{index}
|
||||
This option defines where is connected the drive by using an index in the list
|
||||
of available connectors of a given interface type.
|
||||
@item media=@var{media}
|
||||
This option defines the type of the media: disk or cdrom.
|
||||
@item cyls=@var{c},heads=@var{h},secs=@var{s}[,trans=@var{t}]
|
||||
These options have the same definition as they have in @option{-hdachs}.
|
||||
@item snapshot=@var{snapshot}
|
||||
@var{snapshot} is "on" or "off" and allows to enable snapshot for given drive (see @option{-snapshot}).
|
||||
@end table
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of @option{-cdrom} you can use:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,index=2,media=cdrom
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of @option{-hda}, @option{-hdb}, @option{-hdc}, @option{-hdd}, you can
|
||||
use:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,index=0,media=disk
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,index=1,media=disk
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,index=2,media=disk
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,index=3,media=disk
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
You can connect a CDROM to the slave of ide0:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't specify the "file=" argument, you define an empty drive:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -drive if=ide,index=1,media=cdrom
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
You can connect a SCSI disk with unit ID 6 on the bus #0:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,if=scsi,bus=0,unit=6
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of @option{-fda}, @option{-fdb}, you can use:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,index=0,if=floppy
|
||||
qemu -drive file=file,index=1,if=floppy
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
By default, @var{interface} is "ide" and @var{index} is automatically
|
||||
incremented:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -drive file=a -drive file=b"
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
is interpreted like:
|
||||
@example
|
||||
qemu -hda a -hdb b
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
@item -boot [a|c|d|n]
|
||||
Boot on floppy (a), hard disk (c), CD-ROM (d), or Etherboot (n). Hard disk boot
|
||||
is the default.
