This page is an inprogress overhaul of OS images for emulation.

Quick Start

To set up a "virtual XO", to get a taste of the XO software, see Quick Start.


Setting up emulation for software development

The most common approach is to use QEMU with kqemu acceleration. See Quick Start for the basics. But we will use a different .img, one with a few extra utility programs. See OS images.

Instead of qemu, you can run VMware, and there are addition options on a Mac.

Troubleshooting may help. Please report your experiences in User Feedback on Images.
