I'm working on a Mac, though Linux is better because it will have all the standard tools already
|
|
|
|
available for you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On a mac, [install Homebrew](http://brew.sh) and then `brew install qemu nasm`

Don't use the Xcode developer tools `nasm` if you have them installed, they won't work for the most cases. Always use `/usr/local/bin/nasm`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, on a mac, qemu is split into multiple binaries. You will want

|
to call `qemu-system-x86_84 binfile`
