Hello<br>
<br>
How to convert a bootable linux partition to virtual disk ?<br>
I tried : <br>
<p><code><span class="pln">dd </span><span class="kwd">if</span><span
class="pun">=</span><span class="str">/dev/</span><span
class="pln">sda1 of</span><span class="pun">=</span><span
class="str">/mnt/</span><span class="pln">mydisk3</span><span
class="pun">/</span><span class="pln">sda1</span><span
class="pun">.</span><span class="pln">raw</span></code></p>
<p><code><span class="pln"></span></code><code><span class="pln">qemu</span><span
class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">img convert </span><span
class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">f raw </span><span
class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">O qcow2 sda1</span><span
class="pun">.</span><span class="pln">raw sda1</span><span
class="pun">.</span><span class="pln">qcow2</span></code></p>
<p><code><span class="pln"> but the disk </span></code><code><span
class="pln">sda1</span><span class="pun">.</span><span
class="pln">qcow2</span></code><tt> </tt>is not bootable</p>
<br>
The second partition contains data and is very large, so I want to
check the process with the system partition<br>
