311 <title>Using Qemu</title>
312
313 <para>
314 Since using qemu means using a virtual computer, the steps to set up
315 the virtual machine are in close analogy with those to set up a real
316 computer. You'll need to decide about CPU, memory, disk, USB devices,
317 network card(s), screen size, etc. Once the <quote>hardware</quote> is
318 decided, you'll have for example to choose how to connect the machine
319 to internet, and/or to install an OS. In the following, we show basic
320 ways of performing those steps. But qemu is much more than this, and it
321 is strongly advised to read the qemu documentation in
322 <filename>/usr/share/doc/qemu-&qemu-version;/qemu-doc.html</filename>.
323 </para>
324
325 <note>
326 <para>
327 It is standard practice to name the computer running qemu
328 <quote>host</quote> and the emulated machine running under qemu the
329 <quote>guest</quote>. We'll use those notations in the following.
330 </para>
331 </note>
332
333 <note>
334 <para>
335 The following instructions assume the optional symbolic link,
336 <filename>qemu</filename>, has been created. Additionally,
337 <command>qemu</command> must be run from an X Window System based
338 terminal (either locally or over ssh).
339 </para>
340 </note>
341
342 <bridgehead renderas="sect3">Disk</bridgehead>
343 <para>
344 A virtual disk may be set up in the following way:
345 </para>
346
347<screen><userinput>VDISK_SIZE=<replaceable>50G</replaceable>
348VDISK_FILENAME=<replaceable>vdisk.img</replaceable>
349qemu-img create -f qcow2 $VDISK_FILENAME $VDISK_SIZE</userinput></screen>
350
351 <para>
352 The virtual disk size and filename should be adjusted as desired. The
353 actual size of the file will be less than specified, but will expand as
354 needed, so it is safe to put a high value.
355 </para>
356
357 <bridgehead renderas="sect3">Operating System</bridgehead>
358 <para>
359 To install an operating system, download an iso image from your preferred
360 Linux distribution. For the purposes of this example, we'll use
361 <filename>Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-LXDE.iso</filename> in the current
362 directory. Run the following:
363 </para>
364
365<screen><userinput>qemu -enable-kvm \
366 -drive file=$VDISK_FILENAME \
367 -cdrom Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-LXDE.iso \
368 -boot d \
369 -m <replaceable>1G</replaceable></userinput></screen>
370
371 <para>
372 Follow the normal installation procedures for the chosen distribution.
373 The <parameter>-boot</parameter> option specifies the boot order of
374 drives as a string of drive letters. Valid drive letters are: a, b
375 (floppy 1 and 2), c (first hard disk), d (first CD-ROM). The
376 <parameter>-m</parameter> option is the amount of memory to use for the
377 virtual machine. The choice depends on the load of the host. Modern
378 distributions should be comfortable with 1GB.
379 The <parameter>-enable-kvm</parameter> option allows hardware
380 acceleration. Without this switch, the emulation is much slower.
381 </para>
382
383 <bridgehead renderas="sect3">Defining the virtual hardware</bridgehead>
384 <para>
385 The virtual machine hardware is defined by the qemu command line.

521 The below solution for networking allows the guest to access the local
522 network through the host (and possibly to access internet through the
523 local routers), but the converse is not true. Not even the host can
524 access the guest, unless port forwarding is enabled. And in the case
525 several guests are running, they cannot communicate with each other.
526 Other network devices can be used for this purpose. For example, there
527 is the <quote>socket</quote> device, which allows several guests to
528 share a common virtual network. In the following, we describe in more
529 details how to set up the <quote>bridge</quote> device, which allows
530 the guests to appear as if connected to the local network. All the
