Title:
Raw img not recognized by Windows
Status in QEMU:
New
Bug description:
Hi,
The installation process of Windows (XP/Vista/7) doesn’t seem to recognize a
raw img generated by qemu-img.
The installer does not see any hard drive...
The problem exists only with a raw img but not with a vmdk for
instance.
Thanks
