How to Share a Music Folder with Roon ROCK in QEMU?

Hi everyone,

I’ve successfully installed ROCK using QEMU and KVM, and everything works great when I add music directly to the storage—no issues there.
But now I have a question: how can I tell QEMU to use an existing folder that already contains my music and pass it to Roon ROCK?

Would anyone be kind enough to help me figure this out?
Thanks so much!

Attach the disk as sata virtual drive like your boot drive.

Could you provide me with the complete CLI command to launch the entire instance from bash?

Forget it. In proxmox you can mount an existing image, but not a directory, Of course you could do this in qemu, but you need to copy the data.
I would just create a samba share on your music directory (if you are on linux) and mount that in roon.

This is my /etc/smb.conf (debian).

[global]
	workgroup = WORKGROUP
	log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
	max log size = 1000
	logging = file
	panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
	server role = standalone server
	obey pam restrictions = yes
	unix password sync = yes
	passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
	passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
	pam password change = yes
	map to guest = bad user
	usershare allow guests = yes
	server string = deb1

[music]
	path = /mnt/music
	guest ok = yes
	read only = no
	browseable = yes
