[Geoffroy] That's correct except that the Ctrl-Alt sequence will make QEMU release the mouse/keyboard. So if you use QEMU, just use Ctrl-F3 and you'll have access to a console. This is slightly different than in VMware Player where it seems to be 'intelligent' enough to realise that a Ctrl-Alt-F3 should not release the keyboard/mouse but is actually intended to the guest OS.

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 [Geoffroy] I have just tried the same command-line (well, minus the '-net user' and '-boot menu...' options) and it worked for me, i.e. I could press Ctrl-C and access other consoles using Ctrl-F3 to Ctrl-F6 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 http://she-devel.com/tizen-ivi_qemu_no_getty.png 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. [Geoffroy] Note that the subsequent changes will *not* help because these changes are essentially all about adding the SVGA video driver (VMware emulated video card) and its chain of dependencies. The reason why I settled on VMware for now is because it's the only virtual environment that I could find for which all bits and pieces to enable 3D acceleration within the Guest OS are open-source *and* upstream. The Tizen HomeScreen will not come up if you don't have that feature. Would I be better off starting with a Tizen-IVI ISO, or the Automotive Grade LInux one? [Geoffroy] You will run into the exact same issues. The AGL VMware Image was constructed using the same recipe than the one I've published on the wiki for Tizen IVI 2.0.
