Is it possible to emulate a 4096 byte sector device, in QEMU for example? |
That does seem to be possible. After creating a VM with |
Ok, please get @brs17 up and going with that setup |
Found some issues. Will notify when this is ready for testing. |
It seems to be working with 512 and 4096 byte logical block sizes. The installs succeed and the partitions report the correct sizes during configuration and after install.
