Re: [Bug 1415181] Re: Access raw partitions from Windows

[Sebastián Lacuesta]

Well, it's not an issue for me, but is a nice to have feature. I don't use
the tablet in question anymore. The tablet had an uefi that didn't allow
pendrive boot, but if it could be done what I proposed with qemu, a linux
distro could be booted with qemu and this installed manually in a
partition. The Uefi of the tablet did allow a grub install and also I could
install another bootloader, but any of them recognized pendrives.
So, personally I don't care anymore for now. But would allow a beautiful
method to override insane manufacturers setups.
Thanks, regards!
Sebastián

Title:
  Access raw partitions from Windows

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm using a windows tablet that makes imposible usb booting. It would be nice 
to have access to raw partitions in order to run linux installers using qemu. I 
can successfully install several boot loaders using uefi, so I gues this 
feature would be very helpful.
  Thanks!
