Hi all,

today I had the second incidence of a migrated system (copied with DD)
to qemu which won't boot. (stuck after booting from harddisk message).

Looking at sector 0 I found out that it does not have an MBR. It seems
that real hardware and I was told also vmware can cope with this.
Maybe because it's got a UEFI bootloader?  In this case, you could try
using OVMF as the firmware with the -bios command-line option.
I will try, thanks for the pointer.

It seems that the partition marked as boot has a boot loader though.

Peter
