You can select it by doing: export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=uml export LIBGUESTFS_QEMU=/path/to/vmlinux Note we're reusing the 'qemu' variable in the handle for convenience. QEmu is not involved when using the UML backend. This almost works. UML itself crashes when the daemon tries to connect to the serial port. I suspect it's
