If I insert a CD-ROM into my server's physical CD-ROM drive, can I boot that CD-ROM in a QEMU guest to work on that guest's hard drive? I need to use a Windows 7 repair disk.

This is a continuation of my previous two questions.

I've attached /dev/sr0 to KVM/QEMU virtual machines through virt-manager and they've worked fine, I normally just mount the ISO from a datastore we have though.

This Server Fault post should help you :-)

How to connect a cdrom device to a kvm/qemu domain (using command-line tools)?
