[Qemu-devel] Installing guest OS in VM

Hi,
I have been looking forward to participate in outreachy round 12.So, I was
trying to install guest OS in VM according to instructions as given on this
link:
http://wiki.qemu-project.org/Hosts/Linux but I am stuck after the
instruction which tells to boot PC-BIOS which is

bin/debug/native/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -L pc-bios

After running this I get:VNC server running on '127.0.0.1;5900'and nothing.

Can someone suggest that I am going correct or not? Also after this
how to go about this command:
./qemu-img create -f qcow2 test.qcow2 16G



Thanks,

Sarah

If you recompile with sdl or gtk support, you will get a window showing the
guest console. It looks like you have neither, but you can still use "vncviewer
127.0.0.1:5900" to connect to the vnc server.
