The QEMU x86 emulator --------------------- INSTALLATION ------------ Type ./configure --interp-prefix=/usr/local/qemu-i386 make to build qemu and libqemu.a. Type make install to install QEMU in /usr/local/bin * On x86 you should be able to launch any program by using the libraries installed on your PC. For example: ./qemu -L / /bin/ls * On non x86 CPUs, you need first to download at least an x86 glibc (qemu-XXX-i386-glibc21.tar.gz on the qemu web page). Ensure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set: unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH Then you can launch the precompiled 'ls' x86 executable: ./qemu /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/ls-i386 You can look at /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/qemu-conf.sh so that QEMU is automatically launched by the Linux kernel when you try to launch x86 executables.
