|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
QEMU is an emulator for various CPUs. It works on Linux, Windows, FreeBSD and Mac OS X.
|
||
|
|
Windows version is in an alpha stage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Double hyphen "--" is no more needed. Please use a single hyphen for all options.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please extract ziped file. When extracted, you are ready.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Starting a program
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are two ways to start a program.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2.1 Using a batch file
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A file "qemu-win.bat" starts QEMU. Double click boots Linux on your desktop.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When you use Command Prompt(MS-DOS Prompt), type
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
qemu.exe -L . -hda linux.img
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An option "-hda" set hard disk image and an option "-L" set bios location.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When a mouse cursor is missing, type Ctrl and Alt key together. Please use Alt
|
||
|
|
and Tab on WindowsMe.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To exit from Linux, press Ctrl-Alt-2 keys together then you will see (qemu) prompt.
|
||
|
|
Then type quit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(qemu) quit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2.2 Using a shortcut
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Create a new shortcut of qemu.exe. Right click on the shortcut, append appropriate
|
||
|
|
options like "C:\...\qemu.exe" -L . -hda linux.img at link to text field.
|
||
|
|
Double click the shortcut.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Test
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There is a benchmark in linux.img. When Linux boots, type
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sh-2.05b# cd nbench
|
||
|
|
sh-2.05b# ./nbench
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
INTEGER INDEX and FLOATING-POINT INDEX are index to Pentium 90MHz.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. x86_64 emulation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A file "qemu-x86_64.bat" also boots linux on your desktop. It boots 32 bit and
|
||
|
|
64 bit OS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5. Hard disk image
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A hard disk image file can be created by qemu-img.exe.
|
||
|
|
To create a 10MB hard disk image file, type in command prompt:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
qemu-img.exe create harddisk.img 10M
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6. Floppy and CD-ROM
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can change a floppy and a CD-ROM image from QEMU Monitor.
|
||
|
|
QEMU Monitor can be seen by pressing Ctrl, Alt, 2 key together.
|
||
|
|
Pressing Ctrl, Alt, 1 key together returns to your guest OS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It needs to convert floppy and CD-ROM to image file to use it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For floppy, there are many converters. Please choose your favorite one.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you have CD-R writing software, you can use it. If you don't have it,
|
||
|
|
you can use mkisofs command in cdrtools.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use them together, type:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
qemu.exe -L . -m 128 -boot a -fda floppy.img -hda harddisk.img -cdrom cdimage.iso
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-L : bios location
|
||
|
|
-m : memory size (Mbyte)
|
||
|
|
-boot : boot device floppy(a), hard disk(c), CD-ROM(d)
|
||
|
|
-fda : floppy image
|
||
|
|
-hda : hard disk image
|
||
|
|
-cdrom : CD-ROM image
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When you want to change a floppy and CD-ROM image, type:
|
||
|
|
(qemu) change fda filename.img
|
||
|
|
or
|
||
|
|
(qemu) change cdrom fdimage.iso
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
7. Uninstall
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please delete the extracted folder. If you use an installer, the program uses a registry.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
8. Notes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Don't start two QEMU on one hard disk image. It will break the hard disk image.
|
||
|
