The article is available at <http://wiki.lpr.ch/doku.php/multihomed>. These are a few things I have done in addition to the suggestions in the article. text/html 2008-11-14T10:30:30-05:00 http://wiki.cs.vassar.edu/people/priestdo/tips/nasm_and_gdb?rev=1226676630 It looks like this was fixed in nasm version 2.01, but if you are running version 0.99 you may find that you no longer have debugging information for gdb. The fix is easy, replace -f elf with -f elf32 or -f elf64 depending on your environment. --- Greg Priest-Dorman 2008/11/14 10:27 text/html 2007-12-28T13:56:00-05:00 http://wiki.cs.vassar.edu/people/priestdo/tips/qemu_ubuntu_7.10?rev=1198868160 I recently wanted to try a windows only usb device. I deceided to bring up a qemu image and found a few things out that I wonted to put in one place: for win2k make sure to use -win2k-hack when building the system as indicated in the qemu man page If your host is an ubuntu 7.10 box, to use usb in the guest, you need to uncomment some lines in a file.
