I have a similar problem:
with the latest (june 10) cvs qemu, when I do "qemu /dev/hdc" (the
main disk in my laptop on which I have a dual-boot WinXP / Linux), I
get the Lilo interface without any problem. When I choose to boot
Linux, it works fine. Booting XP however, gives me the message "A disk
read error occurred, Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart". GRUB gives me the
same result.
It seems the lilo bootloader jumps correctly to the XP boot record,
but from that point on something goes wrong.
Has anyone had success yet booting XP (or another windows) from a
device file?

|qemu -hda /dev/hdc1 doesn't work either: "incorrect system" (or similar)

|
|fdisk -l /dev/hdc gives correct values.

|FreeDOS from www.ubcd.de 2.31 and qemu -hda /dev/hda -cdrom /dev/crom
|-boot d showed a 0 MB-Disk while booting...

|What can I do to use this Win95-Installation?
