Hi all,
A package for the qemu machine emulator/virtualizer is now available in
CentOS testing for CentOS 5. qemu was added
- Because the package contains qemu-img, a handy tool for creating and
converting disk images (e.g. for KVM).
- For full virtualization on i386 and x86_64 CPUs that don't have VT-X
or AMD-V support. kqemu is required for optimal performance, we plan
to provide a module package for kqemu in the near future.
For the moment, testing can be oriented at using this (qemu-img in
particular) in combination with KVM. Once the kqemu module packages are
ready, we are also interested in qemu + kqemu testing results.
Information on using the CentOS Testing repository can be found on the
CentOS Wiki at:
http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories
Take care,
Daniel
