#UBUNTU INSTALL QEMU DRIVER#
The other option is HAXM acceleration, which requires installing an Intel driver bundle. accel tcg,thread=multiĮnable multi-threaded TCG acceleration – without this, it’s literally too slow to be usable. Needs to be combined with the “accel thread=multi” option otherwise it’ll actually make things worse. Adjust this according to the number of CPUs you have on your box – I would suggest a minimum value of two, and beyond four may not yield any benefits.

This let’s you SSH or WinSCP to access the machine. Note – this maps port 22 (SSH) to port 2222 on the host machine. 7) Run QEmu against the installed image.Not meeting someone and getting married long, but long enough that you are going to want to have something else to do.

#UBUNTU INSTALL QEMU ISO#
Note I’ve assumed that both the linux.img file we created in the earlier step and the Ubuntu iso (ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso) are in the same directory.

2) Install QEmu – I used the 64bit installer, so it ended up in “C:\Program Files\qemu”.1) Download the Windows version of QEmu, and the latest version of the Ubuntu LTS (Long term stable) iso installer image.Installing Ubuntu Desktop on QEmu on Windows Honestly you are far better installing the ‘Server’ edition of Ubuntu if you just want SSH, but I viewed this as more of an ‘experiment’.
#UBUNTU INSTALL QEMU SOFTWARE#
Note that even with the latest software acceleration enhancements (TCG), Ubuntu isn’t particularly usable as a graphical operating system under Windows 7, however it’s perfectly fine to support SSH sessions for doing linux stuff. I thought I’d share the process, in the hope of helping others. Having just gone through the exercise of getting QEmu running Ubuntu ‘Desktop’ (not Server) under Windows 7 without installing a bunch of Intel hardware virtualization driver software.
