Hi all,

This is the only QEMU list, so I put my question her.
How can I copy the contents of a "*.raw" image to a real HD partition or vice versa. I often use a virtual image using qemu/kvm to test some OS's and want to migrate them to a HD partition if the time is right. Also, I like to preserve old partitions for future use/reference.

Any suggestions?

Regards, Frans.

You can mount it using losetup.

Thanks,

Thanks, that seems a good way to start. Sorry for the obvious, but Linux has so many options/features, I sometimes use the lazy way to get answers.

Regards, Frans.
