[adding scsi disk/cdrom emulation to i386/amd64 guests using new -disk
syntax - quoting /usr/local/share/doc/qemu/qemu-doc.html:
"-disk scsi,img=file[,sdx=a..g][,type=disk|cdrom][,id=n]"
Use file as the SCSI disk/CD-ROM image. The defaults are: sdx=a,type=
disk,id='auto assign'
doing a quick test with a FreeBSD guest I was able to mount and look at
a ufs partition; doesn't seem to quite work with (some?) linux guests
yet tho, will post about this on the qemu list...]
