I already use it to emulate x86 machines, but i was not able before to find 
the qemu-system-arm command!!! the poky-runqemu documentation seems to be 
complex, to run the test images at 
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/images/20070120/qemuarm/  i 
simply used the following command:

qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -kernel 
zImage-2.6.18-qemuarm-20070120215313.bin -hda 
Angstrom-gpe-image-test-20070120-qemuarm.rootfs.ext2  -append "root=/dev/sda"
When the system asked to calibrate to touchscreen i pressed ESC and gpe 
appeared!
I did not use the file modules-2.6.18-qemuarm.tgz.... is there a reason it's 
there?

thanks
