Output to the internal console can be accomplished by the redirection of serial output.

Unlike Bochs, QEMU does not provide an IO port for communicating directly with its internal console. QEMU's internal console can be accessed by the key combination CTRL-ALT-3 within QEMU. Additional debugging commands can be issued from the system console, such as changing disk images and performing memory dumps, among others. The keyboard shortcuts CTRL-ALT- can be used inside the emulator to swap in/out of the emulation screen, the QEMU console and a serial console. These instruct the virtual machine to halt on error instead of rebooting or shutting down, allowing for the operator to inspect the state of the machine after a triple-fault.Īdditional useful command-line options are listed within the Useful QEMU command-line options section. Additionally, the -no-shutdown and -no-reboot options can be used. In order to help track down the source of a triple fault, the -d int option can be used to show additional debugging information on interrupts that occur. This is particularly useful for debugging purposes. The -serial stdio argument used above instructs QEMU to redirect the serial input and output to the host system's stdio stream. If more than one drive in is required in the guest system, it is possible to use the -boot option to define the order in which the system will check for bootable media. In this case the created drive is a CDROM drive, with myos.iso as its loaded media. The -drive format=raw,media=cdrom,file=myos.iso argument instructs QEMU to create a drive in our guest system. The -m 128 argument instructs QEMU to create the guest system with 128MB of RAM. When running QEMU on a non-UNIX system, it may be necessary to use the -L command-line option to instruct QEMU where to find a BIOS image. drive format=raw, media=cdrom, file=myos.iso \ An example usage of QEMU can be seen below: QEMU does not require the use of a configuration script like Bochs.

VBE support be checked by typing ' vbeprobe' on the GRUB command-line. Refer to the GDB-Stub section below for more information. QEMU can be attached to GDB/ DDD to debug the guest operating-system. This makes it faster than the popular alternative emulator Bochs.

Uses 'just in time' code compilation technique (allowing reuse of previous interpretation).

#BOCHS DEBUG FULL#

Two operating modes: full system emulation (of interest for operating-system development) and Linux user process emulation (of interests to people who want to emulate applications).

Supports multiple hosts, multiple targets.
