Create a virtual machine for Archlinux on my macOS using QEMU:
- [Download the Archlinux iso image](https://archlinux.org/download/)
- Create a qemu disk:
{% highlight bash %}
qemu-img create disk.img 5G
{% endhighlight %}
- Start the machine and [install Archlinux](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide)
{% highlight bash %}
qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom archlinux-2021.11.01-x86_64.iso -drive file=disk.img -m 2048
