Apparently, you must either choose -nographic and enable serial on the media, or choose -curses and have VGA emulation with no usable log of the session. It'd be nice to have -nographic work with VGA emulation, too, and not be a serial-only option. C.

qemu -nographic
Hello, I'm not sure if it is a good idea (or even possible) but I'm trying to run OpenBSD as guest in qmemu on a Soerkis and OpenBSD as host. A Soekris has no graphic capabilities so I need to run qemu in nographic mode. I'm not able to do that until now. I ssh to the Soeris and tried several options: lilium$ qemu -nographic -curses obsd.img qemu: -curses: invalid option lilium$ qemu -nographic obsd.img [no output, but qemu is running] lilium$ tty /dev/ttyp0 lilium$ qemu -nographic -serial /dev/ttyp0 obsd.img QEMU 0.13.0 monitor - type 'help' for more information (qemu) [So I do see monitoring mode, but no console output.] lilium$ qemu -nographic -serial stdio obsd.img chardev: opening backend stdio failed qemu: could not open serial device 'stdio': No such file or directory lilium$ qemu -nographic -serial telnet:localhost:1200,server obsd.img QEMU waiting for connection on: telnet:127.0.0.1:1200,server 'lilium$ telnet localhost 1200` does connect, but gives nothing.
