Title: Please add 64bit QEMU to tcz repository
Post by: rufi on December 04, 2014, 12:07:47 AM

I think it's a good idea to use 64bit TinyCore+KVM+QEMU as a virtualization platform.
Then we can store lots of ISO files in USB disk and boot these LiveCDs through VM.

Thanks.

The more interesting thing is that we can do PassThrough in QEMU to let VM use physical hardwares, which opens a lot more possibilities.

As such we need the lspci command to list PCI addresses, it was added to BusyBox 1.16.0, don't know why TinyCore doesn't have this command.

Most users need PCI names, not addresses, and the ID database is big.
