Unfortunately, if you hit continue qemu will reboot right back into the installer. Once you see this screen your installation has completed and it’s time to shutdown. The writer has yet to explore network bridging and other network connectivity. I highly recommend installing a SSH server so you can communicate with the host machine for uploading and downloading files whilst in a NATed network. This allows the virtual machine to install and update packages. To start the installation type: $ qemu-system-mips -M malta \īy default QEMU enables a NATed network interface for Internet connectivity through the hosts network. The installation process is almost identical to the standard x86_64 or i386 architectures.
Before starting make sure all three files ( hda.img, vmlinux-4.9.0-6-4kc-malta and initrd.gz) are actually in the current working directory.
