How do I install the qemu command?
I type qemu and press tab and I get a list of several binaries installed.
qemu-alpha
qemu-arm
...
qemu-x86_64but no qemu.
I type man qemu and it returns the docs as if the command is already installed.
I type qemu to run the command but it doesn't exist?
No command 'qemu' found, did you mean: Command 'qtemu' from package 'qtemu' (universe) Command 'aqemu' from package 'aqemu' (universe)
qemu: command not foundBut after installing sudo apt-get install qtemu aqemu I'm still unable to run qemu.
I'm just attempting to run the following command qemu -localtime -net user -net nic -m 256 -cdrom minix.iso -hda minix.img -boot d, for a minix tutorial.
Any help would be appreciated.

Just replace qemu with qemu-system-i386 or qemu-system-x86_64 as appropriate (whether you want a 32-bit or 64-bit system, and which ISO you're using).
You can also use aqemu, which is a graphical (GUI) front-end to qemu.
On Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) I have installed the qemu-system package with:
sudo apt-get install qemu-systemInside the package it includes:
/usr/bin/qemu-system-cris
/usr/bin/qemu-system-mips64
/usr/bin/qemu-system-mipsel
/usr/bin/qemu-system-sparc
/usr/bin/qemu-system-sparc64
/usr/bin/qemu-system-sh4
/usr/bin/qemu-system-ppc64
/usr/bin/qemu-system-ppc
/usr/bin/qemu-system-m68k
/usr/bin/qemu-system-arm
/usr/bin/qemu-system-ppcemb
/usr/bin/qemu-system-sh4eb
/usr/bin/qemu-system-microblaze
/usr/bin/qemu-system-mips64el
/usr/bin/qemu-system-mipsI have executed an ISO image in an i386 machine with:
qemu-system-i386 -net user -cdrom my_iso.isoIn synaptic package manager you can look for qemu-system package and install it. It will install the binaries for all supported architectures.
In /usr/bin, there is not qemu, but you can use qemu-system-x86_64,qemu-system-arm , etc.
You can write:
qemu-system-x86_64 -localtime -net user -net nic -m 256 -cdrom minix.iso -hda minix.img -boot dBut if you need to use qemu, create a link to qemu-system-x86_64 in ~/bin/qemu.
