Generic virtual machine target. This is particularly useful when doing development and testing.

Installation

https://maedevu.maemo.org/images/virtual-machines/

There are three different types of images: VirtualBox (.box), QEMU (.qcow2, .vdi) and Vagrant. The VirtualBox image may be converted to a VMware VMDK image which has been reported to perform better and have good hardware acceleration. Converting the qcow2 image to raw allows it to be used on real hardware.

Running on QEMU

To run image on qemu, you can do:

xz -d maemo-leste-1.0-amd64-virtual-20180425.vdi.xz

qemu-system-x86_64 maemo-leste-1.0-amd64-virtual-20180425.vdi
