** This should just be using the right binary i.e. qemu-system-ppc(.exe, .app), with some extra options to select an emulated sound device. Consult the QEMU documentation on your machine for full instructions. | |||
** QEMU may exit with an application crash/DLL error on Win32. This generally indicates bad parameter settings, rather than an executable/dependency problem. | |||
** For reference, the following Win32 batch file may be useful as a basis:<br> | |||

* Enable VM network access proxied via the host system. | |||
** QEMU should be providing a virtual ethernet network adapter to the VM, which will provide access to the internet via the host's internet connection. This can be checked by the normal methods such as ICMP ping. If this is not working, check on your host machine, then refer to the QEMU documentation for any missing configuration setting and to see if the hosted OS requires any device driver to allow this virtual device to work. | |||

*** Refer to [[Developer_Central#Getting_started here]] for more help. | |||
** Install any required libraries: <pre>apt-get install libsdl12dev</pre> | |||
** Compiling ScummVM: <pre>cd scummvm && ./configure && make clean && make</pre> | |||
