[Qemu-devel] Crash when trying to format floppy

2006-12-17 Thread David Roberts

same message 3 times. I've had similar problems with usb - apparently qemu is unable to restore usb controllers. Perhaps this is a similar issue - I don't know. If that is the issue, hopefully such things will be fixed at some stage.
