QEMU is a FAST! processor emulator using dynamic translation to |
17 |
achieve good emulation speed. |
18 |
|
19 |
QEMU has two operating modes: |
20 |
|
21 |
@itemize @minus |
22 |
|
23 |
@item |
24 |
Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system (for |
25 |
example a PC), including a processor and various peripherials. It can |
26 |
be used to launch different Operating Systems without rebooting the |
27 |
PC or to debug system code. |
28 |
|
29 |
@item |
30 |
User mode emulation (Linux host only). In this mode, QEMU can launch |
31 |
Linux processes compiled for one CPU on another CPU. It can be used to |
32 |
launch the Wine Windows API emulator (@url{http://www.winehq.org}) or |
33 |
to ease cross-compilation and cross-debugging. |
34 |
|
35 |
@end itemize |
36 |
|
37 |
As QEMU requires no host kernel driver to run, it is very safe and |
38 |
easy to use. |
39 |
|
40 |
For system emulation, the following hardware targets are supported: |
41 |
@itemize |
42 |
@item PC (x86 processor) |
43 |
@item PREP (PowerPC processor) |
44 |
@item PowerMac (PowerPC processor, in progress) |
45 |
@end itemize |
46 |
|
47 |
For user emulation, x86, PowerPC, ARM, and SPARC CPUs are supported. |
48 |
|

@section Introduction |
77 |
|
78 |
@c man begin DESCRIPTION |
79 |
|
80 |
The QEMU System emulator simulates a complete PC. |
81 |
|
82 |
In order to meet specific user needs, two versions of QEMU are |
83 |
available: |
84 |
|
85 |
@enumerate |
86 |
|
87 |
@item |
88 |
@code{qemu-fast} uses the host Memory Management Unit (MMU) to |
89 |
simulate the x86 MMU. It is @emph{fast} but has limitations because |
90 |
the whole 4 GB address space cannot be used and some memory mapped |
91 |
peripherials cannot be emulated accurately yet. Therefore, a specific |
92 |
guest Linux kernel can be used (@xref{linux_compile}) as guest |
93 |
OS. |
94 |
|
95 |
Moreover there is no separation between the host and target address |
96 |
spaces, so it offers no security (the target OS can modify the |
97 |
@code{qemu-fast} code by writing at the right addresses). |
98 |
|
99 |
@item |
100 |
@code{qemu} uses a software MMU. It is about @emph{two times slower} |
101 |
but gives a more accurate emulation and a complete separation between |
102 |
the host and target address spaces. |
103 |
|
104 |
@end enumerate |
105 |
|
106 |
QEMU emulates the following PC peripherials: |
107 |
|
108 |
@itemize @minus |
109 |
@item |
110 |
i440FX host PCI bridge and PIIX3 PCI to ISA bridge |
111 |
@item |
112 |
Cirrus CLGD 5446 PCI VGA card or dummy VGA card with Bochs VESA |
113 |
extensions (hardware level, including all non standard modes). |
114 |
@item |
115 |
PS/2 mouse and keyboard |
116 |
@item |
117 |
2 PCI IDE interfaces with hard disk and CD-ROM support |
118 |
@item |
119 |
Floppy disk |
120 |
@item |
121 |
NE2000 PCI network adapters |
122 |
@item |
123 |
Serial port |
124 |
@item |
125 |
Soundblaster 16 card |
126 |
@end itemize |
127 |
|
128 |
QEMU uses the PC BIOS from the Bochs project and the Plex86/Bochs LGPL |
129 |
VGA BIOS. |

131 |
@c man end |
132 |
|
133 |
@section Quick Start |
134 |
|
135 |
Download and uncompress the linux image (@file{linux.img}) and type: |
136 |
|
137 |
@example |
138 |
qemu linux.img |
139 |
@end example |
140 |
|
141 |
Linux should boot and give you a prompt. |
142 |
|
143 |
@section Invocation |
144 |
|
145 |
@example |
146 |
@c man begin SYNOPSIS |
147 |
usage: qemu [options] [disk_image] |
148 |
@c man end |
149 |
@end example |
150 |
|
151 |
@c man begin OPTIONS |
152 |
@var{disk_image} is a raw hard disk image for IDE hard disk 0. |
153 |
|
154 |
General options: |
155 |
@table @option |
156 |
@item -fda file |
157 |
@item -fdb file |
158 |
Use @var{file} as floppy disk 0/1 image (@xref{disk_images}). You can |
159 |
use the host floppy by using @file{/dev/fd0} as filename. |
160 |
|
161 |
@item -hda file |
162 |
@item -hdb file |
163 |
@item -hdc file |
164 |
@item -hdd file |
165 |
Use @var{file} as hard disk 0, 1, 2 or 3 image (@xref{disk_images}). |
166 |
|
167 |
@item -cdrom file |
168 |
Use @var{file} as CD-ROM image (you cannot use @option{-hdc} and and |
169 |
@option{-cdrom} at the same time). You can use the host CD-ROM by |
170 |
using @file{/dev/cdrom} as filename. |
171 |
|
172 |
@item -boot [a|c|d] |
173 |
Boot on floppy (a), hard disk (c) or CD-ROM (d). Hard disk boot is |
174 |
the default. |
175 |
|
176 |
@item -snapshot |
177 |
Write to temporary files instead of disk image files. In this case, |
178 |
the raw disk image you use is not written back. You can however force |
179 |
the write back by pressing @key{C-a s} (@xref{disk_images}). |
180 |
|
181 |
@item -m megs |
182 |
Set virtual RAM size to @var{megs} megabytes. Default is 128 MB. |
183 |
|
184 |
@item -initrd file |
185 |
Use @var{file} as initial ram disk. |
186 |
|
187 |
@item -nographic |
188 |
|
189 |
Normally, QEMU uses SDL to display the VGA output. With this option, |
190 |
you can totally disable graphical output so that QEMU is a simple |
191 |
command line application. The emulated serial port is redirected on |
192 |
the console. Therefore, you can still use QEMU to debug a Linux kernel |
193 |
with a serial console. |
194 |
|
195 |
@item -enable-audio |
196 |
|
197 |
The SB16 emulation is disabled by default as it may give problems with |
198 |
Windows. You can enable it manually with this option. |
199 |
|
200 |
@item -localtime |
201 |
Set the real time clock to local time (the default is to UTC |
202 |
time). This option is needed to have correct date in MS-DOS or |
203 |
Windows. |
204 |
|
205 |
@end table |
206 |
|
207 |
Network options: |
208 |
|
209 |
@table @option |
210 |
|
211 |
@item -n script |
212 |
Set TUN/TAP network init script [default=/etc/qemu-ifup]. This script |
213 |
is launched to configure the host network interface (usually tun0) |
214 |
corresponding to the virtual NE2000 card. |
215 |
|
216 |
@item -macaddr addr |
217 |
|
218 |
Set the mac address of the first interface (the format is |
219 |
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff in hexa). The mac address is incremented for each |
220 |
new network interface. |
221 |
|
222 |
@item -tun-fd fd |
223 |
Assumes @var{fd} talks to a tap/tun host network interface and use |
224 |
it. Read @url{http://bellard.org/qemu/tetrinet.html} to have an |
225 |
example of its use. |
226 |
|
227 |
@item -user-net |
228 |
Use the user mode network stack. This is the default if no tun/tap |
229 |
network init script is found. |
230 |
|
231 |
@item -dummy-net |
232 |
Use the dummy network stack: no packet will be received by the network |
233 |

522 |
CPU registers by prefixing them with @emph{$}. |

@section Disk Images |
526 |
|
527 |
@subsection Raw disk images |
528 |
|
529 |
The disk images can simply be raw images of the hard disk. You can |
530 |
create them with the command: |
531 |
@example |
532 |
dd of=myimage bs=1024 seek=mysize count=0 |
533 |
@end example |
534 |
where @var{myimage} is the image filename and @var{mysize} is its size |
535 |
in kilobytes. |
536 |
|
537 |
@subsection Snapshot mode |
538 |
|
539 |
If you use the option @option{-snapshot}, all disk images are |
540 |
considered as read only. When sectors in written, they are written in |
541 |
a temporary file created in @file{/tmp}. You can however force the |
542 |
write back to the raw disk images by pressing @key{C-a s}. |
543 |
|
544 |
NOTE: The snapshot mode only works with raw disk images. |
545 |
|
546 |
@subsection Copy On Write disk images |
547 |
|
548 |
QEMU also supports user mode Linux |
549 |
(@url{http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/}) Copy On Write (COW) |
550 |
disk images. The COW disk images are much smaller than normal images |
551 |
as they store only modified sectors. They also permit the use of the |
552 |
same disk image template for many users. |
553 |
|
554 |
To create a COW disk images, use the command: |
555 |
|
556 |
@example |
557 |
qemu-mkcow -f myrawimage.bin mycowimage.cow |
558 |
@end example |
559 |
|
560 |
@file{myrawimage.bin} is a raw image you want to use as original disk |
561 |
image. It will never be written to. |
562 |
|
563 |
@file{mycowimage.cow} is the COW disk image which is created by |
564 |
@code{qemu-mkcow}. You can use it directly with the @option{-hdx} |
565 |
options. You must not modify the original raw disk image if you use |
566 |
COW images, as COW images only store the modified sectors from the raw |
567 |
disk image. QEMU stores the original raw disk image name and its |
568 |
modified time in the COW disk image so that chances of mistakes are |
569 |
reduced. |
570 |
|
571 |
If the raw disk image is not read-only, by pressing @key{C-a s} you |
572 |
can flush the COW disk image back into the raw disk image, as in |
573 |
snapshot mode. |
574 |
|
575 |
COW disk images can also be created without a corresponding raw disk |
576 |
image. It is useful to have a big initial virtual disk image without |
577 |
using much disk space. Use: |
578 |
|
579 |
@example |
580 |
qemu-mkcow mycowimage.cow 1024 |
581 |
@end example |
582 |
|
583 |
to create a 1 gigabyte empty COW disk image. |
584 |
|
585 |
NOTES: |
586 |
@enumerate |
587 |
@item |
588 |
COW disk images must be created on file systems supporting |
589 |
@emph{holes} such as ext2 or ext3. |
590 |
@item |
591 |
Since holes are used, the displayed size of the COW disk image is not |
592 |
the real one. To know it, use the @code{ls -ls} command. |
593 |
@end enumerate |
594 |
|
595 |
@subsection Convert VMware disk images to raw disk images |
596 |
|
597 |
You can use the tool @file{vmdk2raw} to convert VMware disk images to |
598 |
raw disk images directly usable by QEMU. The syntax is: |
599 |
@example |
600 |
vmdk2raw vmware_image output_image |
601 |
@end example |
602 |
|
603 |
@section Network emulation |
604 |
|
605 |
QEMU simulates up to 6 networks cards (NE2000 boards). Each card can |
606 |
be connected to a specific host network interface. |
607 |
|
608 |
@subsection Using tun/tap network interface |
609 |
|
610 |
This is the standard way to emulate network. QEMU adds a virtual |
611 |
network device on your host (called @code{tun0}), and you can then |
612 |
configure it as if it was a real ethernet card. |
613 |
|
614 |
As an example, you can download the @file{linux-test-xxx.tar.gz} |
615 |
archive and copy the script @file{qemu-ifup} in @file{/etc} and |
616 |
configure properly @code{sudo} so that the command @code{ifconfig} |
617 |
contained in @file{qemu-ifup} can be executed as root. You must verify |
618 |
that your host kernel supports the TUN/TAP network interfaces: the |
619 |
device @file{/dev/net/tun} must be present. |
620 |
|
621 |
See @ref{direct_linux_boot} to have an example of network use with a |
622 |
Linux distribution. |
623 |
|
624 |
@subsection Using the user mode network stack |
625 |
|
626 |
By using the option @option{-user-net} or if you have no tun/tap init |
627 |
script, QEMU uses a completely user mode network stack (you don't need |
628 |
root priviledge to use the virtual network). The virtual network |
629 |
configuration is the following: |
630 |
|
631 |
@example |
632 |
|
633 |
QEMU Virtual Machine <------> Firewall/DHCP server <-----> Internet |
634 |
(10.0.2.x) | (10.0.2.2) |
635 |
| |
636 |
----> DNS |
637 |
(10.0.2.3) |
638 |
@end example |
639 |
|
640 |
The QEMU VM behaves as if it was behind a firewall which blocks all |
641 |
incoming connections. You can use a DHCP client to automatically |
642 |
configure the network in the QEMU VM. |
643 |
|
644 |
In order to check that the user mode network is working, you can ping |
645 |
the address 10.0.2.2 and verify that you got an address in the range |
646 |
10.0.2.x from the QEMU virtual DHCP server. |
647 |
|
648 |
Note that @code{ping} is not supported reliably to the internet as it |
649 |
would require root priviledges. It means you can only ping the local |
650 |
router (10.0.2.2). |
651 |
|
652 |
The user mode network is currently only supported on a Unix host. |
653 |

@section Direct Linux Boot |
656 |
|
657 |
This section explains how to launch a Linux kernel inside QEMU without |
658 |
having to make a full bootable image. It is very useful for fast Linux |
659 |
kernel testing. The QEMU network configuration is also explained. |
660 |
|
661 |
@enumerate |
662 |
@item |
663 |
Download the archive @file{linux-test-xxx.tar.gz} containing a Linux |
664 |
kernel and a disk image. |
665 |
|
666 |
@item Optional: If you want network support (for example to launch X11 examples), you |
667 |
must copy the script @file{qemu-ifup} in @file{/etc} and configure |
668 |
properly @code{sudo} so that the command @code{ifconfig} contained in |
669 |
@file{qemu-ifup} can be executed as root. You must verify that your host |
670 |
kernel supports the TUN/TAP network interfaces: the device |
671 |
@file{/dev/net/tun} must be present. |
672 |
|
673 |
When network is enabled, there is a virtual network connection between |
674 |
the host kernel and the emulated kernel. The emulated kernel is seen |
675 |
from the host kernel at IP address 172.20.0.2 and the host kernel is |
676 |
seen from the emulated kernel at IP address 172.20.0.1. |
677 |
|
678 |
@item Launch @code{qemu.sh}. You should have the following output: |
679 |
|
680 |
@example |
681 |
> ./qemu.sh |
682 |

@section Linux Kernel Compilation |
808 |
|
809 |
You can use any linux kernel with QEMU. However, if you want to use |
810 |
@code{qemu-fast} to get maximum performances, you must use a modified |
811 |
guest kernel. If you are using a 2.6 guest kernel, you can use |
812 |
directly the patch @file{linux-2.6-qemu-fast.patch} made by Rusty |
813 |
Russel available in the QEMU source archive. Otherwise, you can make the |
814 |
following changes @emph{by hand} to the Linux kernel: |
815 |
|
816 |
@enumerate |
817 |
@item |
818 |
The kernel must be mapped at 0x90000000 (the default is |
819 |
0xc0000000). You must modify only two lines in the kernel source: |
820 |
|
821 |
In @file{include/asm/page.h}, replace |
822 |
@example |
823 |
#define __PAGE_OFFSET (0xc0000000) |
824 |
@end example |
825 |
by |
826 |
@example |
827 |
#define __PAGE_OFFSET (0x90000000) |
828 |
@end example |
829 |
|
830 |
And in @file{arch/i386/vmlinux.lds}, replace |
831 |
@example |
832 |
. = 0xc0000000 + 0x100000; |
833 |
@end example |
834 |
by |
835 |
@example |
836 |
. = 0x90000000 + 0x100000; |
837 |
@end example |
838 |
|
839 |
@item |
840 |
If you want to enable SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processing) support, you |
841 |
must make the following change in @file{include/asm/fixmap.h}. Replace |
842 |
@example |
843 |
#define FIXADDR_TOP (0xffffX000UL) |
844 |
@end example |
845 |
by |
846 |
@example |
847 |
#define FIXADDR_TOP (0xa7ffX000UL) |
848 |
@end example |
849 |
(X is 'e' or 'f' depending on the kernel version). Although you can |
850 |
use an SMP kernel with QEMU, it only supports one CPU. |
851 |
|
852 |
@item |
853 |
If you are not using a 2.6 kernel as host kernel but if you use a target |
854 |
2.6 kernel, you must also ensure that the 'HZ' define is set to 100 |
855 |
(1000 is the default) as QEMU cannot currently emulate timers at |
856 |
frequencies greater than 100 Hz on host Linux systems < 2.6. In |
857 |
@file{include/asm/param.h}, replace: |
858 |
|
859 |
@example |
860 |
# define HZ 1000 /* Internal kernel timer frequency */ |
861 |
@end example |
862 |
by |
863 |
@example |
864 |
# define HZ 100 /* Internal kernel timer frequency */ |
865 |
@end example |
866 |
|
867 |
@end enumerate |
868 |
|
869 |
The file config-2.x.x gives the configuration of the example kernels. |
870 |
|
871 |
Just type |
872 |
@example |
873 |
make bzImage |
874 |
@end example |
875 |
|
876 |
As you would do to make a real kernel. Then you can use with QEMU |
877 |
exactly the same kernel as you would boot on your PC (in |
878 |
@file{arch/i386/boot/bzImage}). |
879 |
|
880 |
@node gdb_usage |

@section GDB usage |
882 |

884 |
'Ctrl-C' while the virtual machine is running and inspect its state. |

In order to use gdb, launch qemu with the '-s' option. It will wait for a |
887 |
gdb connection: |
888 |
@example |
889 |
> qemu -s -kernel arch/i386/boot/bzImage -hda root-2.4.20.img -append "root=/dev/hda" |
890 |
Connected to host network interface: tun0 |
891 |
Waiting gdb connection on port 1234 |
892 |
@end example |
893 |
|
894 |
Then launch gdb on the 'vmlinux' executable: |
895 |
@example |
896 |
> gdb vmlinux |
897 |
@end example |
898 |
|
899 |
In gdb, connect to QEMU: |
900 |
@example |
901 |
(gdb) target remote localhost:1234 |
902 |
@end example |
903 |
|
904 |
Then you can use gdb normally. For example, type 'c' to launch the kernel: |
905 |
@example |
906 |
(gdb) c |
907 |
@end example |
908 |
|
909 |
Here are some useful tips in order to use gdb on system code: |
910 |
|
911 |
@enumerate |
912 |
@item |
913 |
Use @code{info reg} to display all the CPU registers. |
914 |
@item |
915 |
Use @code{x/10i $eip} to display the code at the PC position. |
916 |
@item |
917 |
Use @code{set architecture i8086} to dump 16 bit code. Then use |
918 |
@code{x/10i $cs*16+*eip} to dump the code at the PC position. |
919 |
@end enumerate |
920 |
|
921 |
@section Target OS specific information |
922 |
|
923 |
@subsection Linux |
924 |
|
925 |
To have access to SVGA graphic modes under X11, use the @code{vesa} or |
926 |
the @code{cirrus} X11 driver. For optimal performances, use 16 bit |
927 |
color depth in the guest and the host OS. |
928 |
|
929 |
When using a 2.6 guest Linux kernel, you should add the option |
930 |
@code{clock=pit} on the kernel command line because the 2.6 Linux |
931 |
kernels make very strict real time clock checks by default that QEMU |
932 |
cannot simulate exactly. |
933 |
|
934 |
@subsection Windows |
935 |
|
936 |
If you have a slow host, using Windows 95 is better as it gives the |
937 |
best speed. Windows 2000 is also a good choice. |
938 |
|
939 |
@subsubsection SVGA graphic modes support |
940 |
|
941 |
QEMU emulates a Cirrus Logic GD5446 Video |
942 |
card. All Windows versions starting from Windows 95 should recognize |
943 |
and use this graphic card. For optimal performances, use 16 bit color |
944 |
depth in the guest and the host OS. |
945 |
|
946 |
@subsubsection CPU usage reduction |
947 |
|
948 |
Windows 9x does not correctly use the CPU HLT |
949 |
instruction. The result is that it takes host CPU cycles even when |
950 |
idle. You can install the utility from |
951 |
@url{http://www.user.cityline.ru/~maxamn/amnhltm.zip} to solve this |
952 |
problem. Note that no such tool is needed for NT, 2000 or XP. |
953 |
|
954 |
@subsubsection Windows 2000 disk full problems |
955 |
|
956 |
Currently (release 0.6.0) QEMU has a bug which gives a @code{disk |
957 |
full} error during installation of some releases of Windows 2000. The |
958 |
workaround is to stop QEMU as soon as you notice that your disk image |
959 |
size is growing too fast (monitor it with @code{ls -ls}). Then |
960 |
relaunch QEMU to continue the installation. If you still experience |
961 |
the problem, relaunch QEMU again. |
962 |
|
963 |
Future QEMU releases are likely to correct this bug. |
964 |
|
965 |
@subsubsection Windows XP security problems |
966 |
|
967 |
Some releases of Windows XP install correctly but give a security |
968 |
error when booting: |
969 |
@example |
970 |
A problem is preventing Windows from accurately checking the |
971 |
license for this computer. Error code: 0x800703e6. |
972 |
@end example |
973 |
The only known workaround is to boot in Safe mode |
974 |
without networking support. |
975 |
|
976 |
Future QEMU releases are likely to correct this bug. |
977 |
|
978 |
@subsection MS-DOS and FreeDOS |
979 |
|
980 |
@subsubsection CPU usage reduction |
981 |
|
982 |
DOS does not correctly use the CPU HLT instruction. The result is that |
983 |
it takes host CPU cycles even when idle. You can install the utility |
984 |
from @url{http://www.vmware.com/software/dosidle210.zip} to solve this |
985 |
problem. |

@chapter QEMU User space emulator invocation |
1058 |
|
1059 |
@section Quick Start |
1060 |
|
1061 |
In order to launch a Linux process, QEMU needs the process executable |
1062 |
itself and all the target (x86) dynamic libraries used by it. |
1063 |
|
1064 |
@itemize |
1065 |
|
1066 |
@item On x86, you can just try to launch any process by using the native |
1067 |
libraries: |
1068 |
|
1069 |
@example |
1070 |
qemu-i386 -L / /bin/ls |
1071 |
@end example |
1072 |
|
1073 |
@code{-L /} tells that the x86 dynamic linker must be searched with a |
1074 |
@file{/} prefix. |
1075 |
|
1076 |
@item Since QEMU is also a linux process, you can launch qemu with qemu (NOTE: you can only do that if you compiled QEMU from the sources): |
1077 |
|
1078 |
@example |
1079 |
qemu-i386 -L / qemu-i386 -L / /bin/ls |
1080 |
@end example |
1081 |
|
1082 |
@item On non x86 CPUs, you need first to download at least an x86 glibc |
1083 |
(@file{qemu-runtime-i386-XXX-.tar.gz} on the QEMU web page). Ensure that |
1084 |
@code{LD_LIBRARY_PATH} is not set: |
1085 |
|
1086 |
@example |
1087 |
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH |
1088 |
@end example |
1089 |
|
1090 |
Then you can launch the precompiled @file{ls} x86 executable: |
1091 |
|
1092 |
@example |
1093 |
qemu-i386 tests/i386/ls |
1094 |
@end example |
1095 |
You can look at @file{qemu-binfmt-conf.sh} so that |
1096 |
QEMU is automatically launched by the Linux kernel when you try to |
1097 |
launch x86 executables. It requires the @code{binfmt_misc} module in the |
1098 |
Linux kernel. |
1099 |
|
1100 |
@item The x86 version of QEMU is also included. You can try weird things such as: |
1101 |
@example |
1102 |
qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/ls-i386 |
1103 |
@end example |
1104 |
|
1105 |
@end itemize |
1106 |
|
1107 |
@section Wine launch |
1108 |
|
1109 |
@itemize |
1110 |
|
1111 |
@item Ensure that you have a working QEMU with the x86 glibc |
1112 |
distribution (see previous section). In order to verify it, you must be |
1113 |
able to do: |
1114 |
|
1115 |
@example |
1116 |
qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/ls-i386 |
1117 |
@end example |
1118 |
|
1119 |
@item Download the binary x86 Wine install |
1120 |
(@file{qemu-XXX-i386-wine.tar.gz} on the QEMU web page). |
1121 |
|
1122 |
@item Configure Wine on your account. Look at the provided script |
1123 |
@file{/usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/wine-conf.sh}. Your previous |
1124 |
@code{$@{HOME@}/.wine} directory is saved to @code{$@{HOME@}/.wine.org}. |
1125 |
|
1126 |
@item Then you can try the example @file{putty.exe}: |
1127 |
|
1128 |
@example |
1129 |
qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/bin/wine /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/c/Program\ Files/putty.exe |
