cd abc
2. Upload the downloaded ISO image to the EVE root/abc using for example FileZilla or WinSCP. 3. Create new HDD for CSR installation: /opt/qemu/bin/qemu-img create -f qcow2 virtioa.qcow2 8G
4. Start CSR installation, make sure you have edited this line and corrected ISO filename in this command: /opt/qemu-2.2.0/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -drive file=virtioa.qcow2,if=virtio,bus=0,unit=0,cache=none -machine type=pc-1.0,accel=kvm -serial mon:stdio -nographic -nodefconfig -nodefaults -rtc base=utc -cdrom csr1000v-universalk9.03.17.04.S.156-1.S4-std.iso -boot order=dc -m 3072

9. Move CSR HDD to target directory: mv virtioa.qcow2 /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/csr1000v-universalk9.03.17.04.S.156-1.S4-std/
10. Clean and fix permissions: cd
rm -rf abc
/opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions
