Add ability to import non-removable disk images on iOS

Open HunterBoy344 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I’ve already got a 3GB raw hard disk image for QEMU that I want to use with UTM SE, but I can’t use it because I can only import it as a removable drive. I can only set the interface type to USB or None without a crash on startup (wherein QEMU complains that a drive on a non-removable interface has the removable flag set) and if I do it doesn’t even boot into the OS, just the BIOS shell.

I’d like to be able to import a disk image (specifically a raw IMG file, but other formats like qcow2 would be nice as well) as a non-removable drive on iOS. This seems to already be a feature in UTM for macOS, so I don’t know why it’s not in UTM and UTM SE on iOS.

I have the same problem currently, I tried creating the virtual machine in osx and importing it but it didn't work. I want to get Home Assistant working on an iPhone. Has it worked for you to import and get the machine working in UTM Se?

"Import Drive" is supposed to do this. It is a bug that it creates a removable drive.
