I made a new Portable Slackware 12.2 (Xfce) using the new version of QEMU (0.10.5) for GNU/Linux.

I also tested this new Portable Slackware 12.2 with kqemu on my Slackware 12.2 host and it works well and very fast.

:)

Awesome, glad you got it going.

Does it run any faster?
Wonder if there is a way to configure a version of 12.2 solely for emulation?

linus72 07-13-2009 03:02 PM

Oh, anyway I can get the portable-qemu you made up or directions?
kqemu too
did you integrate kqemu into portable-qemu?

I am still making some tests.

kqemu is a kernel module, so I cannot make it start from USB, unless it is installed on the GNU/Linux host computer.

In the next few days, I will upload this new version to my web space and give you the link, so you can download it.
