Preparing a Testing Environment

• Install qemu
  • On Ubuntu: aptitude install qemu
  • On Fedora: yum install qemu
• Select a development branch to focus your testing on (to be referenced when submitting your bug report)
• Download the img file from http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/custom/g1g1/en-708-1/
• Launch the image with qemu -m 256 -soundhw es1370 -net user -net nic,model=rt8130 -hda en708-1.img

Question: where do we get the .bz images that can be bzcat'd into 1gb files for ^? Ask CScott
