Replace the second entry containing /dev/mmcblk0p2 with /dev/sda2, save and exit.

Replace the first entry containing /dev/mmcblk0p1 with /dev/sda1.

IF you see anything with mmcblk0 in fstab, then: $ sudo nano /mnt/raspbian/etc/ld.so.preloadĬomment out every entry in that file with ‘#’, save and exit with Ctrl-x » Y. $ sudo mount -v -o offset= 70254592 -t ext4 ~/qemu_vms/ /mnt/raspbian Use this value as an offset in the following command: $ sudo mkdir /mnt/raspbian Now take that value and multiply it by 512, in this case it’s 512 * 137216 = 70254592 bytes. You see that the filesystem (.img2) starts at sector 137216. I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytesĭevice Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type

Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes You should see something like this: Disk -raspbian-jessie.img: 4.1 GiB, 4393533440 bytes, 8581120 sectors Inside your Ubuntu VM, create a new folder: $ mkdir ~/qemu_vms/ĭownload and place the Raspbian Jessie image to ~/qemu_vms/.ĭownload and place the qemu-kernel to ~/qemu_vms/.

A Raspbian Image: (other versions might work, but Jessie is recommended).

We will use Ubuntu and emulate our desired ARM versions inside of it.įirst, get the latest Ubuntu version and run it in a VM:įor the QEMU emulation you will need the following:
