<para>If <application>xorg</application> is not installed in

|
|
|
|
<para>To install an operating system, download an iso of your choice or use
|
|
a pre-intalled cdrom device. For the purposes of this example, we will use
|
|
Fedora 16 that is downloaded as
|
|
<filename>Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-LXDE.iso</filename> in the current
|
|
directory. Run the following:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>qemu -hda vdisk.img \
|
|
-cdrom Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-LXDE.iso \
|
|
-boot d \
|
|
-m 384</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>Follow the normal installation procedures for the chosen
|
|
distribution. The -boot option specifies the boot order of drives as a string
|
|
of drive letters. Valid drive letters are: a, b (floppy 1 and 2), c (first
|
|
hard disk), d (first CD-ROM). The -m option is the amount of memory to use
|
|
for the virtual machine. If you have sufficient memory (2G or more), 1G is
|
|
a reasonable value. For computers with 512MB of RAM it's safe to use -m
|
|
192, or even -m 128 (the default).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To run the newly installed operating system, run:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>qemu vdisk.img -m 384</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>To add networking to the instance add "-net nic -net user" to the
|
|
command above. qemu provides a DHCP server for the VM and, depending on
|
|
the client system, sets up networking though the host.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>One problem with the above networking solution is that it does not
|
|
provide the ability to connect with the local network. To do that, there are
|
|
several additional steps that need to be done, all as the <systemitem
