Hi Laurent, Thanks for the direction. I am just thinking. If I run a guest OS once and observe the blocks that are translated and may be reused. Then I again re-run the OS, can I expect the same blocks are translated ? i.e., is qemu consistent on how it partitions the asm into blocks on succe

[Qemu-devel] qemu dynamic translation (system design) question

2006-08-19 Thread S . P . T . Krishnan

Hi, This is my first post to this list. I have been using qemu for the last several versions. Works great, in fact I just booted off a Vista beta 2 yesterday from a linux host. My query is whether Qemu either now or in the near future will support wireless interface ? Example: Qemu_VM could b
