Hosts W32 - QEMU QEMU on W32, W64 and ARM64 hosts This documentation is work in progress - more information will be added as needed While QEMU's main host platform is Linux, it is sometimes also useful to build or run it on members of the W32 W64 family of operating systems (MS Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows 11, ) or on ReactOS (a W32 clone) Support for W64 was added in QEMU 1 1 See https: www qemu
QEMU Full-system emulation Run operating systems for any machine, on any supported architecture
Network emulation — QEMU documentation Network emulation QEMU can simulate several network cards (e g PCI or ISA cards on the PC target) and can connect them to a network backend on the host or an emulated hub The various host network backends can either be used to connect the NIC of the guest to a real network (e g by using a TAP devices or the non-privileged user mode network stack), or to other guest instances running in
Documentation GuestOperatingSystems Windows7 - QEMU Windows 7 Windows 7 comes in two flavors: 32-bit and 64-bit This page was made with the 64-bit version in mind, but these directions should still work for the 32-bit version When installing Windows 7, create a hard drive image file that is at least 20 GB in size This would create a 50 GB hard drive image file: qemu-img create -f qcow2 "Windows 7 HD qcow2" 50G Suggested Command-Line: qemu
Introduction — QEMU documentation Introduction Virtualisation Accelerators QEMU’s system emulation provides a virtual model of a machine (CPU, memory and emulated devices) to run a guest OS It supports a number of hypervisors (known as accelerators) as well as a JIT known as the Tiny Code Generator (TCG) capable of emulating many CPUs
Supported build platforms — QEMU documentation Windows The project aims to support the two most recent versions of Windows that are still supported by the vendor The minimum Windows API that is currently targeted is “Windows 8”, so theoretically the QEMU binaries can still be run on older versions of Windows, too
System Emulation — QEMU documentation System Emulation This section of the manual is the overall guide for users using QEMU for full system emulation (as opposed to user-mode emulation) This includes working with hypervisors such as KVM, Xen or Hypervisor Framework
QEMU disk image utility — QEMU documentation QEMU disk image utility Synopsis qemu-img [standard options] command [command options] Description qemu-img allows you to create, convert and modify images offline It can handle all image formats supported by QEMU Warning: Never use qemu-img to modify images in use by a running virtual machine or any other process; this may destroy the image
