To emulate the Raspberry Pi on OS X, you need a version of QEMU that supports the ARM 1176 instruction set (QEMU version 1.0.1 or above).

  1. Upgrade Xcode to 4.3 or above (step 2 requires this).
  2. Upgrade Homebrew to the latest version. Older versions of Homebrew have an old version of QEMU that does not support the RPi's 1176 instruction set. The necessary version of QEMU was added in 1a3c5ac.
  3. Install QEMU: $: brew install qemu
