-Using OE images with QEMU
-=========================
-
-OE-Core can generate qemu bootable kernels and images with can be used
-on a desktop system. The scripts currently support booting ARM, MIPS, PowerPC
-and x86 (32 and 64 bit) images. The scripts can be used within the OE build
-system or externaly.
-
-The runqemu script is run as:
-
- runqemu <machine> <zimage> <filesystem>
-
-where:
-
- <machine> is the machine/architecture to use (qemuarm/qemumips/qemuppc/qemux86/qemux86-64)
- <zimage> is the path to a kernel (e.g. zimage-qemuarm.bin)
- <filesystem> is the path to an ext2 image (e.g. filesystem-qemuarm.ext2) or an nfs directory
-
-If <machine> isn't specified, the script will try to detect the machine name
-from the name of the <zimage> file.
-
-If <filesystem> isn't specified, nfs booting will be assumed.
-
-When used within the build system, it will default to qemuarm, ext2 and the last kernel and
-core-image-sato-sdk image built by the build system. If an sdk image isn't present it will look
-for sato and minimal images.
-
-Full usage instructions can be seen by running the command with no options specified.
-
-
-Notes
-=====
-
- - The scripts run qemu using sudo. Change perms on /dev/net/tun to
- run as non root. The runqemu-gen-tapdevs script can also be used by
- root to prepopulate the appropriate network devices.
- - You can access the host computer at 192.168.7.1 within the image.
- - Your qemu system will be accessible as 192.16.7.2.
- - The script extracts the root filesystem specified under pseudo and sets up a userspace
- NFS server to share the image over by default meaning the filesystem can be accessed by
- both the host and guest systems.
