QEMU Feb 17, 2012

Thanks, but I can't seem to get it to compile, hence request for precompiled exe...

Well, I am running Mingw under Win7 64-bit and get

$ ./configure
glib-2.0 required to compile QEMU
How do I add this?

pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0

Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc'

to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

No package 'gtk+-2.0' found

Yes, saw that. I downloaded the packages but have no idea what to do with them after I have downloaded them!

  GEN   trace.h

  GEN   qemu-options.def

  GEN   qmp-commands.h

/bin/sh: python: command not found

make: *** [qmp-commands.h] Error 127

Thanks! That was were I was going wrong, I copied them all to msys1.0 !
Configure now runs - next problem: when I run make I get...

  GEN   trace.h

  GEN   qemu-options.def

  GEN   qmp-commands.h

/bin/sh: python: command not found

make: *** [qmp-commands.h] Error 127

I appreciate your help - thanks!

and so it goes on!

Thanks, I wanted to try the new version.
Early versions work with MS-DOS booting via grub4dos but won't boot a x64 WinPE v3 USB stick (non-x64 cpu detected), later (2011) versions don't boot MSDOS via grub4dos and get further booting PE64 (but stlll crashes later). I wanted to see if the latest version would be better.
Why is it so hard to get a working exe - don't they developers want people to use it?

for complete usability experience, you should go back to 0.15.1 as later version (1.0, 1.0.1, even latest git revision) have a broken user networking (slirp) because of the introduce of glib, and the fix they pushed doesn't work at all.
My binaries:
0.15.1 http://roy.orz.hm/qemu/qemu-0.15.1.zip
SDL.dll http://roy.orz.hm/qemu/SDL.dll
latest git build http://roy.orz.hm/qe...-2012022509.zip
My builds depends on SDL.dll only, other libraries are static library and linked into binary directly.

There has been a major bug/fix (well more of a sidestep) with Qemu 1.0.1, and it works much better now...

I've detailed it here, Long story short, coroutine-win32.c must be built -O0, binaries available here.

Are there the same release as the files on the official page?
Which are also seemingly 1.0.1 as seen here :

I think he just rebuilt the BIOS to support USB booting... While I've compiled that one core file as -O0 so that disk access under things like CentOS (Linux) and Darwin ( OS X) won't crash Qemu when they enumerate IDE controllers...

February 29, 2012: updated for Qemu-1.0.1 - Still a "to be tested" version. See bug report win32: git rev 59f971d crashes when accessing disk (coroutine issue). In my version a workaround was to compile coroutine-win32.c without optimisation (-O0): contains qemu-system-arm.exe, qemu-system-i386.exe, qemu-system-ppc.exe, qemu-system-sparc.exe, qemu-system-x86_64.exe and the linux-0.2.img image
