Run the following command after running su and enter password from the terminal.
apt-get install glib-2.0 pkg-config
libglib2.0 build-essential libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev
Download and install Qemu:
wget
http://wiki.qemu-project.org/download/qemu-1.6.1.tar.bz2
tar jxvf qemu-1.6.1.tar.bz2
cd qemu-1.6.1
tar jxvf qemu-1.6.1.tar.bz2
cd qemu-1.6.1
./configure
--target-list=i386-softmmu,x86_64-softmmumake
make install
Note:
There are several errors I have
encountered when I run “make”command to prepare qemu's package. Solved by running apt-get install to install the missing applications like
flex, lex and bison.
KVM Installation:
apt-get install qemu-kvm
Virtualbox installation:
To install Virtualbox, go to
Applications, click Add/Remove software type virtualbox and click
find. Check the OracleVM Virtualbox and click apply.
Install dependencies:
apt-get install libelf-dev uuid-dev
libpcap-dev
apt-get install python-qt4 xdotool
Instead of downloading the latest GNS3
8.6 package I have downloaded and install the available Debian
package repository. You can find it here: http://gns3.serverb.co.uk/
To install the packages:
dpkg -i package-name.deb
Automatically GNS3 icon will be
available under the Application. Just double click and configure the
necessary settings, preferences and it's ready to simulate.
