http://unix.stackexchange.com – So I compiled a linux kernel by doing make menuconfig and make. I was trying to run the bzImage in qemu, by doing "qemu -kernel bzImage" but it didn't work out: How can I fix it? How can I run the bzImage in qemu? Thanks (HowTos)

load linux Bzimage in qemu 36 weeks 3 days ago

I compiled a linux by doing "Make menuconfig" then make and now I have compiled the most recent version of linux. How can I load the kernel into qemu?

P.S. its for x86

Thanks!

I needed a minimally-configured Real Time kernel, I compiled a new kernel with menuconfig.

I have downloaded the source code package for QEMU version 0.15.1 and unpacked it in my home directory. The following commands are then run:

$ ./configure --target-list=arm-softmmu $ make # make install

The source code compiles without any warnings or errors.

I have compiled an embedded linux with build root for i386. I didn't edited much, just defaults. Now I want to run it under qemu. But the only thing I see is this:

I'm running qemu with these options:

qemu-system-i386 -kernel vmlinux -hda rootfs.ext2 -m 256

Why this is happening? I have compiled like the example in the buildroot documentation.

I am developing a linux kernel and I am trying to to debug it in QEMU. I want to be able to run it in QEMU but it stops because I do not have a virtual hard drive to boot it(using the -hda command).

I have started reading the book Essential Linux Device Drivers. I am following the process for compiling and booting into a new kernel.

Ask about QEMU and KVM 1 year 14 weeks ago

I`ve searched for many documents about KVM and QEMU and some of the documents say that KVM can not create a Virtual Machine without QEMU, and some of them say that QEMU only handle the I/O task of VMs so can someone please explain what exactly QEMU does when I combine KVM with QEMU. I tried to create a VM with KVM, without QEMU and I succeed. by the way, I`m using Ubuntu Server 11.10 thanks for an

I've compiled qemu for s5pc110 (it's from http://gitorious.org/samsung-linux-platform/qemu, somebody had added support for s5pc110), version 0.12. But when I load the kernel:

qemu vs qemu-kvm 51 weeks 6 days ago

Not totally sure but it seems like the qemu- and qemu-kvm support on Chakra is still quite poor (no libvirt?). According to the German Arch wiki arm is supported in qemu on Arch:https://wiki.archlinux.de/title/Qemu#In … ebssystems
