Using the LiveCD image with Qemu
The 2008-11-06 PDF release notes (die, PDF, die!) say
- "Alternate you can also use a virtual PC like Vitualbox, qemu, kvm or try any other software out of this category."
I tried using the .iso CD image with qemu on Windows
> cd \My\Path\to\qemu-0.9.0-windows > qemu.exe -cdrom XO-LiveCD_081106.iso Could not open '\\.\kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated qemu: could not load PC bios '/c/Program Files/Qemu/bios.bin'
OK, so first start kqemu (a separate package)
> net start kqemu The KQEMU virtualisation module for QEMU service was started successfully. > qemu.exe -cdrom XO-LiveCD_081106.iso qemu: could not load PC bios '/c/Program Files/Qemu/bios.bin'
so something hardcoded that path. So I renamed my qemu directory to C:\Program Files\Qemu (I could have probably skipped this and used the -L . command-line parameter.
> qemu.exe -cdrom XO-LiveCD_081106.iso qemu: could not load PC bios '/c/Program Files/Qemu/bios.bin'
Even though that file is present. I took my old commands to load a .img OS image and replaced long-name_ext3.img with -cdrom XO-LiveCD_081106.iso
> qemu.exe -L . -m 256 -kernel-kqemu -soundhw es1370 -net user
-net nic,model=rtl8139 -hda -cdrom XO-LiveCD_081106.iso
progress! that started up a new window:
