+@subsection Quick Start
+
+In order to launch a Mac OS X/Darwin process, QEMU needs the process executable
+itself and all the target dynamic libraries used by it. If you don't have the FAT
+libraries (you're running Mac OS X/ppc) you'll need to obtain it from a Mac OS X
+CD or compile them by hand.
+
+@itemize
+
+@item On x86, you can just try to launch any process by using the native
+libraries:
+
+@example 
+qemu-darwin-i386 /bin/ls
+@end example
+
+or to run the ppc version of the executable:
+
+@example 
+qemu-darwin-ppc /bin/ls
+@end example
+
+@item On ppc, you'll have to tell qemu where your x86 libraries (and dynamic linker)
+are installed:
+
+@example 
+qemu-darwin-i386 -L /opt/x86_root/ /bin/ls
+@end example
+
+@code{-L /opt/x86_root/} tells that the dynamic linker (dyld) path is in
+@file{/opt/x86_root/usr/bin/dyld}.
