Re: [Qemu-discuss] Converting qcow2 to vmdk on MacOSX results in a non-b

Adding -S 0 doesn't change anything (besides the file size) so it looks
like a similar but different issue.

I use this to convert:

qemu-img convert -S 0 -O vmdk -p
bionic-server-cloudimg-amd64-20190705162225.img
bionic-server-cloudimg-amd64-20190705162225.vmdk

Running the .img (qcow2) works fine with:

qemu-system-x86_64 -hda bionic-server-cloudimg-amd64-20190705162225.img
-machine accel=hvf -smp cpus=2 -m 512
