[Qemu-discuss] Disk drives and "fd set"

[Dale R. Worley]

Does Qemu have a way to present to the VM a disk drive that is
simulated from a set of files which hold the images of the partitions?
The standard -drive option requires that a disk image be in one host
file, so all the partitions have to be assembled together.

(And is this useful, or is it simpler to have each partition be in a
one-partition disk drive?)

-- this may or may not be related --

The documentation (file:///usr/share/doc/qemu/qemu-doc.html) describes
how to set up a "fd set" but it tells nothing about what an fd set is
or does.

Thanks,

Dale
