[uml-devel] QEMU 0.4 release

[Fabrice B. <fab...@fr...>]

Hi,

The QEMU x86 CPU emulator version 0.4 is available at 
http://bellard.org/qemu. QEMU can now launch an unpatched(*) Linux 
kernel and give correct execution performances by using dynamic 
compilation.

QEMU requires no host kernel patches and no special priviledge in order 
to run a Linux kernel. QEMU simulates a serial console and a NE2000 
network adapter. X11 applications such as xterm have been launched.

QEMU can be used for example for faster kernel testing/debuging and 
virtual hosting.

Enjoy!

Fabrice.

(*) Two bytes must be changed in order to remap the kernel at user 
addresses.
