Just for grins, I thought I'd try uploading a VMDK file into VMWare
LabManager, but I couldn't figure out how to import it, so I decided to
fall back onto qemu, which I've used for years, including the MeeGo days
with helpful hints from Haitao Feng.   I downloaded Geoffroy's .raw image
and booted it in Qemu following a script that, with some variation, has
worked with MeeGo, Fedora, Ubuntu . . . images.    First I tried with
localhost relying on an AMD processor, and then I tried again with an
Intel-powered laptop.   Both are newer processors running newer kernels.

Here is my script:

qemu-system-i386 --enable-kvm -boot c -hda
/mnt/Tizen-IVI/ivi-release-tizen-2.0_20130423.12-sdb.raw -m 4096 -net
nic,model=e1000  -net user,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:6666-:22 -name tizen_ivi
-localtime -boot menu=on,splash-time=10

The result is a boot sequence that comes up and won't start X, as
Geoffroy's helpful instructions at
https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/IVI/IVI_2.0_VMware indicate:

   - The very first time, the VM machine gets stuck in an infinite look
   waiting for X to start and the following messages appear on the F1 console:

Xinit: give up
Xinit: unable to connect to X server: Network is unreachable
Xinit: server error
Waiting X…


   - At that stage, press Ctrl-C. You now have access to other consoles on
   F3 to F6 (Ctrl-Alt+F3)

Just the problem I'm having: awesome!   However, when I hit Ctrl-C, I am
dumped to runlevel 1, not the runlevel 3 that Geoffroy reports.   I do get
access to other consoles, but I fail to see a login prompt on any of them.
   I see a "(qemu)" prompt on "compat_monitor0 console" (console 2), but
can't figure out how to induce it to run getty.   The other consoles have
no prompt at all.     Here

is a screenshot of what console 1 looks like.    I wanted to try to see
kernel cmdline to boot differently, but can't figure out how.    Do I need
to configure the serial console in the qemu command-line to start a getty
on console 3, "serial0 console"?    Then I could perhaps telnet it and
perform the subsequent changes Geoffroy recommends.

Would I be better off starting with a Tizen-IVI ISO, or the Automotive
Grade LInux one?

Thanks,
Alison
