| 266 | <para>
|
|---|
| 267 | Since using qemu means using a virtual computer, the steps to set up
|
|---|
| 268 | the virtual machine are in close analogy with those to set up a real
|
|---|
| 269 | computer. You'll need to decide about CPU, memory, disk, USB devices,
|
|---|
| 270 | network card(s), screen size, etc. Once the <quote>hardware</quote> is
|
|---|
| 271 | decided, you'll have for example to choose how to connect the machine
|
|---|
| 272 | to internet, and/or to install an OS. In the following, we show basic
|
|---|
| 273 | ways of performing those steps. But qemu is much more than this, and it
|
|---|
| 274 | is strongly advised to read the qemu documentation in
|
|---|
| 275 | <filename>/usr/share/doc/qemu-&qemu-version;/qemu-doc.html</filename>.

| 314 | <filename>Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-LXDE.iso</filename> in the current

| 328 | (floppy 1 and 2), c (first hard disk), d (first CD-ROM). The

| 329 | <parameter>-m</parameter> option is the amount of memory to use for the

| 330 | virtual machine. The choice depends on the load of the host. Modern

| 331 | distributions should be comfortable with 1GB.
|

| 332 | The <parameter>-enable-kvm</parameter> option allows hardware

|

| 474 | The above solution for networking allows the guest to access the local
|
|---|
| 475 | network through the host (and possibly to access internet through the
|
|---|
| 476 | local routers), but the converse is not true. Not even the host can
|
|---|
| 477 | access the guest, unless port forwarding is enabled. And in the case
|
|---|
| 478 | several guests are running, they cannot communicate with each other.
|
|---|
| 479 | Other network devices can be used for this purpose. For example, there
|
|---|
| 480 | is the <quote>socket</quote> device, which allows several guests to
|
|---|
| 481 | share a common virtual network. In the following, we describe in more
|

| 482 | details how to set up the <quote>bridge</quote> device, which allows
|
|---|
| 483 | the guests to appear as if connected to the local network. All the
