DSL Embedded :: saving space



AwPhuch, i`m sorry that is what i want to do :P, but how would i? i try doing the hostdrive (floppy) and i type in the bat "/dev/fd0" and i can`t get it to work so if i can`t do the floppy then how can i even do the sda drive (thunb drive) when it dose not even have usb suppost to beginnig.
thanks

ok i really just using this board for notes i guess :P. if u want to help out thats cool. but i find how to boot from the host floppy in windows u type "A:" as the file name not "/dev/fd0". all of the documentation is for run in linux not windows. dose any one know hot to boot a hd (G:) with the emulator?
thanks

There are two ways that i know of:

1) Download the latest MSWindows "Nightly Build" of Qemu and use the QEMU menu utility to boot from HD.

2) Read the QEMU online manual from the website that contains the explanation of the command line switches including the one that lets you boot from a virtual hard drive.

i can't? as far as the 2nd idea u posted, all of the doc(s) are for linux not even the windows port has it, it has  the linux doc. and as far as ur 1st idea i tried it as well (don't work)
thanks

p.s. i would also like to do this for linux and maybe for mac (i don`t know if mac can read a fat partitions or not.)
