Re: [Qemu-devel] Support Questions
I came across a product called Iemulator and think it based on QEMU. If so, I wanted to know how possible is it to re-brand qemu to something similar to Iemulator. Also, I am quite new to QEMU and virtualization in general and wanted to know the difference between QEMU and product like OpenVZ. Based on my reading on them I think they are quite different. I suppose QEMU is more like VMware aimed at end users and OpenVZ would be more for Enterprise servers. Joe Natalia Portillo wrote: Well, Fabrice Bellard is main developer, and KQEMU whole developer.

If so, I wanted to know how possible is it to re-brand qemu to something similar to Iemulator. It is based on QEmu. See http://www.iemulator.com/iemulator_faq.php, Is iEmulator based on the BOCHS emulator?. It is perfectly legal. The core of QEmu is licensed under the LGPL, and accordingly, (at least some) sources of iEmulator are freely downloadable. Also, I am quite new to QEMU and virtualization in general and wanted to know the difference between QEMU and product like OpenVZ. OpenVZ is a virtualiser, i.e. it uses the hardware -- including the CPU -- of the host, and relies on the OS to handle the sharing parts. Therefore, you can not run unmodified kernels (or Windows for that matter) using OpenVZ. QEmu is a system emulator, i.e. the hardware componentes are emulated. As for the CPU, QEmu uses a technique called translation or Just-In-Time compilation in order to execute the code. If the host CPU is of the same type as the emulated CPU, you can use KQEmu or QVEmu to kind-of virtualise the CPU instead. I suppose QEMU is more like VMware aimed at end users and OpenVZ would be more for Enterprise servers. Correct. The principal application for QEmu is to run a different OS in a window on your desktop. The principal application for OpenVZ or Zen is to run many virtual computers (servers) on one host.

IEmulator (as of the 1.7.x series) is a rebrand of a early stage project Q Build (http://www.kju-app.org/proj/) which is based on QEMU itself. Q has different graphic output and some frontend extensions compared to QEMU. We tried to port the natural virtualization modul qvm86 to OS X, too. But as QEMU has moved on, we have put a hold on that. So QEMU on OS X (ppc and intel) remains a simulation.

Re: [Qemu-devel] Support Questions
I am looking for a good GUI for QEMU. Below are the one I've found about so far. Does anyone know of any other good GUI that would be similar to VMware? http://sourceforge.net/projects/kqemu/ http://emeitner.f2o.org/qemu_launcher Mike Kronenberg wrote: On 13.06.2006, at 16:37, Joe Lee wrote: I came across a product called Iemulator and think it based on QEMU.
