Can anyone tell me why when following the coreboot wiki procedure for using qemu I would get the error message:

"Unrecognized partitioning scheme"

 

 

The last few lines are below:

So.FILO does seem to be able to read something from this disk image, from the output. If relevant, the OS I was using was knoppix.

 

 

Also I'd like to know if there an easy way to exit qemu. I keep having to run kill -9 <task number>

[dsedrich at nwell:~] $ qemu -L ~ -hda /home/tmp/disk.img -nographic

Could not configure '/dev/rtc' to have a 1024 Hz timer. This is not a fatal

error, but for better emulation accuracy either use a 2.6 host Linux kernel or

type 'echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq' as root.
