Hello, Douglas. There is a great video about the topic on youtube: Kernel Recipes 2015 - Speed up your kernel development cycle with QEMU - Stefan Hajnoczi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBY9l97-lto > _______________________________________________ > Kernelnewbies mailing list > Kernelnewbies at kernelnewbies.org > https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
