1) <span class=span_content_bash>apt-get install qemu</span> <br>This will install Qemu :) <br> <br>2) Update to qemu0.9 or higher. <br>At least this was necessary under Ubuntu 7. I did it like this: <br>2a) Download the binary from here: http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/download.html <br>2b) Untar it (but not in / as they say !) <br>2c) copy all files from "usr/local/bin/" to "/usr/bin" <br>2d) copy all files from "usr/local/share/qemu/" to "/usr/share/qemu/" (not quite sure about this one) <br> <br>3) <span class=span_content_bash>qemu-img create qemu.img 4G -f qcow2</span> <br>This will create a partition that automatically grows and can store snapshots. <br>(Maybe you need to chmod this a bit. Not sure) <br> <br>4) <span class=span_content_bash>qemu -cdrom /dev/cdrom -boot d qemu.img</span> <br>Or if you want to boot from an iso: qemu -cdrom somefile.iso -boot d qemu.img <br> <br>5) Have fun! <br> <br>(If you get trapped in the Qemu window, press CTRL+ALT and you will be set free again)
