Images on an emulator

QEMU on Linux

Build Name QEmu Version System Info Description username
olpc-redhat-stream-development-build-183-20061116_1824-devel_ext3.img Qemu 0.8.1, from Debian's repository Acer Aspire AMD 1.8 Ghz 1GB RAM; Debian etch (testing); Linux 2.6.17-2-k7; Boots into the GUI and works fine. Is not 100% responsive, but it's expected. To be able to view the entire eToys screen, had to edit the Grub boot entry and change the display size to vga=0x317 To_be_created

I have tried the iso olpc-redhat-stream-development-build-185-20061117_2044-livecd.iso with qemu
$ qemu -cdrom olpc-redhat...livecd.iso -boot d<br:> and I got an "Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable"
... same problem when burning the cd though (md5 & cd-burn are ok), any hit?

I think you need to use a .img file, not a .iso have a look here OS_images_for_emulation#QEMU_on_Linux --Tomhannen 17:37, 21 November 2006 (EST)
