   Are both original Xbox emulators built off of QEMU. I've only used Xemu, but performance was pretty good for the games I tried on it (it doesn't have a way to upscale rendering yet though).

   library and tools for accessing and modifying virtual machine disk images. PLEASE DO NOT USE GITHUB FOR ISSUES OR PULL REQUESTS. See the website for how to file a bug or contact us.

   

   There's a lot of useful command-line tooling for KVM and QEMU-based virt. Here's a small selection of useful tools:

   • virsh — This[1] is libvirt's shell interface; and gives you access to the rich set of libvirt APIs.

   • virt-builder — Use this for rapidly building minimal or customized virtual machines; it's greatly flexible; check out its man page[2]. And here's[3] a quick example that connects both virt-builder and virsh together.

   • virt-install — Use this if you don't like the default build of the template images from virt-builder; it lets you create "headless" servers via 'kickstart' and Linux OS trees from the command-line.

   • guestfish and libguestfs suite[4] — This rich set of tools help you in a variety of use-cases: repairing your broken disk images, editing, cloning, debugging disk images, and more. It has saved my behind a lot of times.

   • qemu-img[5] – This Swiss Army knife lets you powerfully manipulate disk images (QCOW2, raw, et al) offline. Example operations include: create images, backing chains, offline snapshots, disk image merging, and convert disk images from one format to another, and more.

5. UTM

   4 250 28,615 9.1 Swift

   Virtual machines for iOS and macOS

   

   There's an app that wraps QEMU called UTM. It's open source but also you can pay $10 and get it on the app store.

   I have had a lot of trouble with machines getting corrupted, not working at all, locking up, but I did get a Debian machine working that runs ARM Linux on my Macbook Air M1.

   5 2 4 3.6 Nix

   

   HVF works with some patches that are on the mailing list; it's possible to get Nix to build it with an overlay. [1] for the base, then apply [2] to SLIRP if you don't want to use HVF's network adapter (which needs root). I'm happily running FreeBSD and Linux VMs on my Mac Mini with this
