The purpose of this tutorial is to setup KolibriOS in QEMU (virtual machine emulator), so we’re going to need these programs/files:

The first thing we’re going to do is to setup KolibriOS virtual machine on Qemu Manager, so it’s assumed that you have installed it already.

Launch Qemu Manager and you will see the following window.

Click on the Img00002.gif toolbar button to add a new machine. Then it will ask you to write the new virtual machine name:

Then click Next and in that window fill the Virtual Machine RAM textbox with a RAM needed, remember that KolibriOS support 8MB of RAM as a minimum, I suggest using 64Mb

Click Next and in this window check “This Virtual Machine Does Not Require A Virtual Drive”

In the next window don’t modify anything:

Click Next and in the following window click on “Save Virtual Machine” button

Select the “Disk Configuration” tab and click on the shown button, which is for choosing our KolibriOS floppy image:

Then select the appropiate floppy image

Next select “Boot from floppy disk”
