[Sugar-devel] VM for building an ARM image

[Gustavo Duarte]

Thanks James !

I'll try with these options, QEMU setup and on a XO4 with F18
(particularly, thanks for the tips, choice f18 instead f20).

The goal of this work is build the latest portable version of Geogebra
[1] on ARM arch, (isn't portable enough :( ).

I'll let you know the results.

Thank you very much.

Gustavo
