FYI if you're trying to follow along - it appears that QEMU doesn't (for some reason) run on a headless workstation. You'll have to have X installed.

You can run qemu without the graphical UI with `-nographic` (serial port output to the console) or `-curses` which can show the vga text output on your console.
Ah - thanks. I wish I'd known that before I installed the full X distribution.
