NOTE: Several methods to attach a USB stick\/device (e.g., one containing TimeMachine backups) to a QEMU VM<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Option 1: In Linux Mint (Debian\/Ubuntu), attached USB storage gets the group “disk”. So add your normal user to that group.
$ sudo usermod -aG disk itababa
$ newgrp disk<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Then add the device nodename of the USB device to the “args” list for QEMU in the OpenBoot-core.sh file (get the device file from the output of “blkid” or “lsblk” (e.g., \/dev\/sdb)
-hdc \/dev\/sdb<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– you can also use the following 2x lines (equivalent to the single “-hdc \/dev\/sdb” line above)
-drive id=USBstick,if=none,file=”\/dev\/sdb”
-device ide-hd,bus=sata.5,drive=USBstick<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note: in OSX, since the USB is “direct-attached”, it is treated as a HDD. To make the volume appear on the desktop, go to “Finder” (menu) > “Settings”. Check\/select\/enable the “Hard disks” option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Option 2: Add the USB device’s “location” to the args list for QEMU in the OpenBoot-core.sh file (get the hostbus and hostaddr from the output of the “lsusb” commmand). You must also change the permission on the device files (e.g., “sudo chmod o+rw \/dev\/bus\/usb\/002\/*”). This operation does not survive a reboot of the physical host or re-insertion of the USB, so if you want it permanent consider UDEV rules):
-device qemu-xhci,id=usbxhci
-usb -device usb-host,hostbus=2,hostaddr=6<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, in the “lsusb” output below, “Bus” is “hostbus” and “Device” is “hostaddr”
root@itamint:\/home\/itababa\/OSX-KVM# lsusb
\u2026
Bus 002 Device 006: ID 05dc:a838 Lexar Media, Inc. JumpDrive Tough<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IMPORTANT NOTE: to prevent the OSX on QEMU from freezing\/hanging (after about 10 mins uptime):
– Go to “System Settings \u2026” > Energy Saver > Conserve battery > “Put hard disks to sleep when possible” disabled.
– Go to “System Settings \u2026” > “Lock Screen” > “Turn display off when inactive” to “Never”
– Also, you MUST login to an account, if you leave the system on the login screen, it will freeze\/hang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* If you restore a time machine back along with “System & Networking”, check afterwards that the two settings above have not reverted to their defaults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
