Hi all,
qemu 0.9.1 packages are now provided through the CentOS 5 testing repository. qemu is mainly provided for the qemu-img tool, but in the future we may also add kqemu. We'd like to hear if qemu-img is working ok for everybody. We can focus on testing qemu itself once kqemu is packaged.
Information on using the CentOS Testing repository can be found on the CentOS Wiki at:
http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories
The qemu package is named (surprise :)) 'qemu', and can be installed after adding the testing repository:
yum --enablerepo=c5-testing install qemu
Thanks, Daniel

Wonderful! Hopeful to see kqemu soon, too. qemu + kqemu is great alternative to vmware* and for those of use who don't have vmx-capable hardware. So nice that vdisk created with qemu-img should be transportable between qemu & kvm.
