@strawberryfieldsforever @MisterB qemu can be compared to virtualbox when paired with somthing like libvirt/virt-manager, this way it can run OS in an isolation But qemu paiered other parts can also do something that virtualbox cannot - emulating different architectures

@strawberryfieldsforever I've used QEMU very successfully to document a secondary operating system.I'm usually using Kubuntu but used a virtual QEMU install to do screen captures and verify the information written for this beginners guide:http://runeman.org/intro20-04/index.html@peter

@peter In the thread, I've only seen your single comment about needing more than "just" qemu.I also use Virtual machine manager, of course. I don't remember what other things might have also been useful dependencies. @strawberryfieldsforever

@Algot @strawberryfieldsforever I have written about qemu too, it is a fascinating piece of softwarehttps://peterbabic.dev/blog/how-not-create-node-executable-arm/https://peterbabic.dev/blog/how-run-latest-node-emulated-revpi/https://peterbabic.dev/blog/how-emulate-raspios-natively-qemu/https://peterbabic.dev/blog/cross-package-node-app-arm-qemu-docker

@Algot @strawberryfieldsforever Thank you! Would you mind a question? Is there any feedback from the users in the Natick community target group? I am asking because I feel like everyone is trying to focus education on the young and younger, while teaching elders some computer literacy is probably as important as ever

@peter The writing has had group reaction along the way. Some have appreciated it, though typically the group is far more computer literate than the target audience.The group has provided a computer running Ubunutu Linux to the community/senior center where the group has met during years before the pandemic.In the past year we have been meeting using Jitsi Meet.Please consider joining us.http://millermicro.com/FOSSUserGroupArchive.html#UpcomingFOSSMeeting@strawberryfieldsforever

@Algot @strawberryfieldsforever do you still actively use it outside of the project?

@peter I occasionally take a look at other operating systems, from a point of general interest. Not what I would call "active'.I have not emulated ARM software to this point, but that sounds like an interesting idea to test RPi ideas.As I mentioned, I'm not (yet) really into the RPi, though I have done a couple of simple trial activities.@strawberryfieldsforever

@peter I use the long term support version of Kubuntu for day-to-day work.Getting a look at the latest KDE software versions as a virtual machine is tantalizing.@strawberryfieldsforever
