2012/03/14 補: 用一個 image 當作 base, 然後 create 出來其他 image 檔
http://jamyy.dyndns.org/blog/2012/02/3594.html

wistor@wistor-001:~$ sudo qemu-img create -b iscsi-server-base.qcow2 -f qcow2 wistor-004.qcow2
Formatting 'wistor-004.qcow2', fmt=qcow2 size=4294967296 backing_file='iscsi-server-base.qcow2' encryption=off cluster_size=0

2012/03/14 補: 把.img 轉成 qcow2

wistor@wistor-001:~$ sudo qemu-img convert -O qcow2 iscsi-server-base.img iscsi-server-base.qcow2

2012/03/15 補: 如何直接 mount qcow2

wistor@wistor-003:~$ modprobe nbd
wistor@wistor-003:~$ sudo kvm-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 ~/kvm/ubuntu-11.10-3.2-base.qcow2
wistor@wistor-003:~$ sudo mount /dev/nbd0p1 /mnt/kvm
wistor@wistor-003:~$ sudo umount /mnt/kvm
wistor@wistor-003:~$ sudo kvm-nbd -d /dev/nbd0

2012/03/16 補: 如何 boot from network
