May I know how can I make the initrd image for a given kernel version in order to boot it using QEMU? On Thu, Jan 31, 2013 at 4:24 PM, Anuz Pratap Singh Tomar < chambilkethakur@gmail.com> wrote:

hi:)
I want to boot kernel from hard disk image ,because i am using a virtual machine . How to make this bootable image ? After I make it ,how do I put kernel Image into this image?
If you are using qemu or kvm, you don't need to put the kernel inside the virtual machine image.
Just use -kernel (or possibly -initrd) parameter and pass the path and file name of your kernel image and you're good to go.
The path? How to write the path? You mean the virtual machine can share physical hard disk with the host ,without its own hard disk image ?
assume your virtual disk image is in /tmp/guest.img.
Kernel is /tmp/kernel-image. Initrd is /tmp/initrd
Usually, I invoke it this way: qemu -kernel /tmp/kernel-image -initrd /tmp/initrd -hda /tmp/guest.img
thanks! how does the /tmp/kernel-image made ?
Really? your bzImage is your kernel-image.
Hope you got the idea....
