-Using qemu with poky notes
-==========================
-
-Poky can generate qemu bootable kernels and images with can be used
-on a desktop system. Both arm and x86 images can currently be booted.
-The runqemu script is run as:
-
- runqemu <target> <type> <zimage> <filesystem>
-
-where:
-
- <target> is "qemuarm" or "qemux86"
- <type> is "ext2" or "nfs"
- <zimage> is the path to a kernel (zimage-qemuarm.bin)
- <filesystem> is the path to an ext2 image (filesystem-qemuarm.ext2)
-
-It will default to the qemuarm, ext2 and the last kernel and oh-image-pda
-image built by poky.
-
-NFS Image Notes
-===============
-
-As root;
-
-% apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
-
-% mkdir /srv/nfs/qemuarm
-
-Edit via /etc/exports :
-
-# /etc/exports: the access control list for filesystems which may be exported
-# to NFS clients. See exports(5).
-/srv/nfs/qemuarm 192.168.7.2(rw,no_root_squash)
-
-% /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
-
-% modprobe tun
-
-untar build/tmp/deploy/images/<built image>.rootfs.tar.bz2 into /srv/nfs/qemuarm
-
-Finally, launch:
-
-% runqemu <target> nfs
-
-(Substitute qemux86 for qemuarm when using qemux86)
-
-Notes
-=====
-
- - The runqemu script runs qemu with sudo. Change perms on /dev/net/tun to
- run as non root
- - You can set QEMU_MEMORY env var to control amount of available memory
- ( defaults to 64M )
- - There is a bug in qemu in that means occasionally it will use 100% cpu.
- You will need to restart it in this situation.
