| (Step 1) Downloading or unpacking the image gives errors. | Ensure that the MD5SUM matches:

Your system must have VT support and have the KVM modules loaded.
egrep '^flags.*(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo $ lsmod | grep kvm kvm_intel 43816 0 kvm 164576 1 kvm_intel If needed, load the module: $ sudo modprobe kvm_intel |
| (Step 5) Launching never finishes; no MeeGo UI. A new window appears but it is just black. Title: QEMU (MeeGo) | |
| (Step 5) Performance in QEMU is slow |
Please check whether the host machine has the hardware graphic acceleration by running below command:
