Add GUI QEMU Host in GNS3
Today I’ll show you how to add graphical host in GNS3 using Qemu. We’ll be using tinycore which is based on Linux 2.6 kernel, Busybox, Tiny X, and Fltk. Tiny Core includes ssh, iptables, iproute, tcpdump and IPv6 support. It is quite well integrated and doesn't require much tuning. This is a graphical version of Microcore linux image, we used in previous tutorial Add Qemu host in GNS3 .
Download Tinycore Linux Qemu image
Tinycore Linux 2.11.5 Qemu image can be downloaded separately from here.
Setup image for Qemu host
Go to Edit | Preferences | Qemu | Qemu Host
Setup new image with following properties
- Identifier: tiny_core
- image: local path to linux-tinycore-2.11.5.img
- Memory: 64 MB
- NIC: e1000
- Qemu options: -no-acpi
Press Save and just added image will appear into Qemu Host images list.
Drag Host >> Select Name >> Right Click >> Start
Watch Tinycore in Action here.
Happy Learning

Download this qemu wrapper from here http://sourceforge.net/projects/gns-3/files/Qemu/qemuwrapper.exe/download . Replace this one with the one present in GNS3 folder in Program files. See If you still get error. If so please let me know.

Hi,
I used Ubuntu 10.10 with GNS30.7.3, MicroCore 3.4, TinyCore 3.4, VPCS20a. I downloaded VPCS 20a Created a topolgy having 2 cloud, started vpcs and set the Lport and Rport values but was not able to ping both the ends, same issue with the qemu host also i can able to start qemu host (MicroCore, TinyCore) but cannot ping the other end tested with router directly connected to the qemu host and an L2 switch which comes default with GNS3
L2 switch directly connected to two Qemu host pc's, Not able to ping the other ends, If you can post some tutorial for Linux

I'll show you VPCS configuration part which I'll be posting today, So look out for that. For tutorial on Qemu , you'll have to wait a bit, since i'm busy with some office work.
