Re: [Qemu-devel] How to run qemu (i386) without hda image?

[Christian MICHON]

one possibility is to include your kernel and initrd inside a
bootable iso (mkisofs and isolinux are your friends: look at
the man pages for numerous solutions).

the kernel panic could be actually missing block drivers
or your root parameter is wrong.
