Chapter 5: Running the Simulator

Use a raw floppy-disk image in a manner similar to the above. It's a lot smaller

and a bit more hassle, so we don't recommend it.

Mount a hard-disk image on the host. (On a Linux host, you can use the

"loopback device").

Use the JumpDrive USB device to copy files into the simulator and out of the

simulator, see. Section A.7.26, “JumpDrive, on page 250.


Copying files out of the simulator corresponds to putting some data into some media in
the guest which will then be extracted on the host. To do this, mount a hard-drive image
on the host after placing the data on it in the guest. (On a Linux host, you can use the
"loopback device").

5.2.2 Run The Simulation

Once the disk-images are assigned, the simulation may be started by clicking on the Play
button

on the Main Window‟s Tool Bar.
