Startup
- QEMU Emulator User Documentation (HTML generated from QEMU sources, updated frequently)
- QEMU documentation on wikibooks.org
- QEMU-Buch / QEMU-Book - a quite versatile book on qemu, provided in German and English (partly as a google translation), its describing e.g. lots of guests and hosts
How do I...
For users
- Set up Networking
- Setting up VirtFS (9P Sharing over Virtio) between the guest and host
- Create a Snapshot
- Ubuntu Development Ports - details on qemu-<arch> usage, chroot set up, system emulation and cross compilation
- Compiling with qemu-user chroot - details on tuning binfmt_misc with magic patterns for making alien binaries run from the shell with silent invocation of QEMU
- Use vhost-user with OVS/DPDK as backend
For users that target for a specific platform:
- Debian on an emulated ARM machine based upon some Debian Linux host (see here for the probably most current images matching this HowTo)
- Debian on an emulated MIPS(EL) machine based upon some Debian Linux host
- Debian on an emulated SPARC machine based upon some Debian Linux host
- Windows XP on QEMU-x86 based upon some Linux host (brief but good hints on the guest set up)
- FreeDos on QEMU-x86 based upon some Linux host (concentrates on host details)
- QEMU in Embedded Linux Development - Virtual Development Board
- Running POWER / sPAPR / pseries guests on QEMU
- Running PowerPC Macintosh guests on QEMU
