This device is used for testing purposes. It is possible to run postmarketOS in a x86_64 Virtual Machine. QEMU will emulate the default x86_64 architecture (see qemu-system-x86_64 -machine help
for more choices).

Usage
$ pmbootstrap init # Choose device "qemu-amd64"
$ pmbootstrap install --no-fde
$ pmbootstrap qemu --image-size=2G
See pmbootstrap qemu --help
for more options. Notably --spice
uses the SPICE protocol, which may give you better 3D acceleration. The --display=gtk
switch allows you to see the serial output, but we didn't get 3D acceleration working with it. Default output is SDL (where 3D acceleration is working for most setups).
What works
- Storage
- Network
- Keyboard and mouse
- Graphical interfaces (Weston, Plasma Mobile, ...)
osk-sdl
(with --spice)
What does not work
- X11 over vesa: see #672
osk-sdl
segfaults without --spice
Screenshots
