Qemu Launcher is a Gtk+ front-end for the QEMU computer emulator, written by Erik Meitner and Linas Žvirblis.

[edit] Features

Qemu Launcher provides a graphical front-end to all basic, and many advanced QEMU computer emulator options. It allows you to create, save, and run multiple virtual machine configurations, create and convert disk images.

Qemu Launcher utilizes the full system emulation mode of QEMU that allows you to run unmodified operating system on virtual hardware.

Qemu Launcher also supports launching virtual machines from the command line, by specifying the configuration name. Note that you still need a graphical environment to do this, unless the virtual machine is set to start in non-graphics mode.

[edit] Software requirements

• Perl interpreter
• Gtk2 Perl module
