Dependencies

sudo apt update && sudo apt install git build-essential binutils g++-multilib libgtk2.0-dev libtool-bin libsdl-dev -y

MIT QEMU

Warning: Don’t do this under Windows paths, like /mnt/c

By default, binary is at /usr/local/qemu/bin/qemu-system-i386. If you want to change install path, change --prefix when you do ./configure bellow.

Get the source, then ./configure, make and make install:

git clone https://github.com/mit-pdos/6.828-qemu.git qemu && cd qemu
./configure --disable-kvm --disable-werror --target-list="i386-softmmu x86_64-softmmu" --prefix=/usr/local/qemu
sudo make && sudo make install

Result

➜  nemo /usr/local/qemu/bin/qemu-system-i386

(qemu-system-i386:9398): Gtk-WARNING **: 19:03:08.047: cannot open display:

It’s normal that you can’t open display on WSL 1. If you did opened, something mysterious might had happened to you.

JOS

Fetch the source:

git clone https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.828/2018/jos.git os-lab && cd os-lab

Remember to edit ./conf/env.mk.

# env.mk - configuration variables for the JOS lab

<!-- omit some lines till you get to the last line -->

QEMU=/usr/local/qemu/bin/qemu-system-i386 # *Change to your path_to_qemu_binary here*

Start JOS:

make qemu-nox

You would see:
