To start the QEMU emulator from within Eclipse, follow these steps:
Expose and select "External Tools" from the "Run" menu. Your image should appear as a selectable menu item.
Select your image from the menu to launch the emulator in a new window.
If needed, enter your host root password in the shell window at the prompt.
This sets up a Tap 0
connection needed for running in user-space
NFS mode.
Wait for QEMU to launch.
Once QEMU launches, you can begin operating within that
environment.
For example, you could determine the IP Address
for the user-space NFS by using the ifconfig
command.
