** The full method here is to create a blank QCOW2 disk image file with the qemu-tools and then use this as the main emulated hard disk via the "-hda" option, then add a Linux PPC CDROM ISO image using the "-cdrom" option, start QEMU and do the distribution installation procedure as normal. | ** The full method here is to create a blank QCOW2 disk image file with the qemu-tools and then use this as the main emulated hard disk via the "-hda" option, then add a Linux PPC CDROM ISO image using the "-cdrom" option, start QEMU and do the distribution installation procedure as normal. | ||

** By default, QEMU should be providing a virtual ethernet network adapter to the VM, which will provide access to the internet via the host's connection. This can be checked by the normal methods such as ICMP ping within the VM OS. 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. | ** By default, QEMU should be providing a virtual ethernet network adapter to the VM, which will provide access to the internet via the host's connection.
