[Qemu-discuss] Can't attach to SCSI controller

[Ian Chapman]

Hi,

Using qemu-system-i386, it seems completely impossible to attach a media 
image to a SCSI controller, other than the default which is an 
lsi53c895a. I specifically want to use the lsi53c810. As soon as I 
specify if=scsi as part of the -drive line, it insists on creating a
lsi53c895a and attaching it to that, regardless of what bus number or 
index number I specify. What am I missing?

Example command line: (Linux, qemu 2.9.1)

qemu-system-i386 -L . -M pc -hda disk.qcow2 \
-device lsi53c810,multifunction=on \
-m size=128M \
-drive if=scsi,index=0,media=cdrom,file=cd.iso
