For the hardware, I’m having Windows.
And on Linux, qemu‑user can wrap Linux system calls into native Linux system call without having to ᴊɪᴛ a whole system (should work with anyone).
I even build a rootfs which is able to transparently execute both ᴀᴍᴅ⁶⁴ and Power binaries (much like it’s possible to use mix 32‑bits x86) that way (with native toolchain included).
