Configure QEMU for Windows cross compilation:
@example
-./configure --enable-mingw32
+PATH=/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin:$PATH ./configure --cross-prefix='i686-pc-mingw32-'
+@end example
+The example assumes @file{sdl-config} is installed under @file{/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin} and
+MinGW cross compilation tools have names like @file{i686-pc-mingw32-gcc} and @file{i686-pc-mingw32-strip}.
+We set the @code{PATH} environment variable to ensure the MingW version of @file{sdl-config} is used and
+use --cross-prefix to specify the name of the cross compiler.
+You can also use --prefix to set the Win32 install path which defaults to @file{c:/Program Files/Qemu}.
+
+Under Fedora Linux, you can run:
+@example
+yum -y install mingw32-gcc mingw32-SDL mingw32-zlib
@end example
-If necessary, you can change the cross-prefix according to the prefix
-chosen for the MinGW tools with --cross-prefix. You can also use
---prefix to set the Win32 install path.
+to get a suitable cross compilation environment.
@item You can install QEMU in the installation directory by typing
-@file{make install}. Don't forget to copy @file{SDL.dll} in the
+@code{make install}. Don't forget to copy @file{SDL.dll} and @file{zlib1.dll} into the
installation directory.

-Note: Currently, Wine does not seem able to launch
