I have a few questions about running a linux distro in a vm on a linux box.  I   
   have read up about how to get Ethernet working over a bridge, but have not yet   
   got to installing the system, etc.   
      
   (1) When the qemu session is running, is it smart to use the xserver on the vm   
   instance?  If I am not using the xserver and running the vm instance in console   
   mode, will qemu catch certain keystrokes like ctrl-alt-2 so I can switch to   
   tty2 (for example) or will that keystroke combo be interpreted by the host   
   machine?   
      
   (2) If I can follow the directions and get the Ethernet bride working   
   correctly, so that the network can see both the host and vm, I assume I can   
   also do things like mount nfs shares in the vm.  Is that a correct assumption?   
      
   (3) Will I be able to access other hardware while in the vm, like a usb port   
   and whatever might be connected to it?   
      
   I have run DOS in a vm on a linux box, but I expect this to be different.  :)
