However, I think they are very interesting - hence this series! Join me on a very much unstructured journey into the depths of all things low-level. I am a web developer by trade, and as such I’m not exposed to these things on a daily basis. This output is particularly helpful if you are having trouble booting the system, in which case you may also wish to remove 'rhgb' and 'quiet' from the kernel boot parameters.Welcome to part one of RISC-V from scratch! Throughout RISC-V from scratch we will explore various low-level concepts (compilation and linking, primitive runtimes, assembly, and more), typically through the lens of RISC-V and its ecosystem. When booting the virtual system, add 'console=ttyS0' to the kernel boot parameters. '-serial file:/tmp/qemu-output.log' to the qemu command line. To get kernel output dumped to a file outside the virtual system, add e.g. $qemu fedora.qcow -boot c -net nic -net user -m 196 -localtime If that happens: just close the qemu window and type the following command into your konsole to launch your new OS: Maybe this may fail (was the case for me) - but don't worry. After the install, qemu will try to boot the new OS itself. '-m 196' is the Set virtual RAM size (megabytes), default is 128 MB, I chose 196. '-user -net' is important to have internet access within your new system. $ qemu -cdrom /dev/cdrom -hda fedora.qcow -boot d -net nic -net user -m 196 -localtime Put in the install CD and type into your konsole (all in one line without break): It just means that your new system is limited up to 10GB - if the new system takes only 1,2 GB also the image will only be at 1,2GB. Note: Even if you take 10GB this does NOT mean that the image does really HAVE the size of 10GB. Of course you are not obliged to take 5GB. Of course, this does not apply to 'qemu-img'. In the following examples where 'qemu' is, substitute your command for executing qemu. To discover the qemu commands that are installed perform the following: In this mode, QEMU can launch Linux processes compiled for one CPU on another CPU.

User mode emulation (Linux host only).

It can be used to launch different Operating Systems without rebooting the PC or to debug system code.

In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system (for example a PC), including a processor and various peripherials.

QEMU is a generic and open source processor emulator which achieves a good emulation speed by using dynamic translation. Refer to Getting started with virtualization Qemu QEMU is a very flexible virtualization technology however it is quite slow and it is recommended that you understand and evaluate alternative solutions before picking this one.
