When I use qemu-img in order to expand the Raspian IMG and now want to expand the file system in the IMG using raspi-config I get the error message
sda2 not an SD card. Don't know how to expand

The Raspbian IMG does not leave a lot of space for storing files when I am trying to download something on to my virtual Pi. The thing is: raw data images take an eternity to expand even on my SSD. qcow2 images do not have this issue. This is why I would like to have qcow2 support for this script.
I'm getting "need tun module" at startup of the vm...I've tried everything I can to get things to work but no way. I did an "ip address show" command and I see a tap0 "tap0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether 02:4d:40:9a:79:99 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
But I need some help getting this script to run. lsmod | grep tun shows nothing; but I can do modprobe tun without error. Maybe I need to reboot? I'll try that.
I try to use the script on Linux Mint. The Raspbian system crashes at boot, think it's because sda2 cant be mounted. See attached screenshot.
Hi,
First of all I'd like to thank you for putting this work out I've been looking to emulate raspberry pi with networking access for a while now. I'm very keen to see this project working but I've encountered errors when trying to run it.
First of all:
sudo apt-get install kvm qemu qemu-kvm-extras bridge-utils
Gives me:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'qemu-kvm' instead of 'kvm'
Package qemu-kvm-extras is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'qemu-kvm-extras' has no installation candidate
Secondly:
Launching qemu:
sudo ./qemu-pi.sh 2017-01-11-raspbian-jessie-lite.img # correct to real name
Starts going through boot process but then quickly shuts down with this error:
no IP found for enp3s0
need to tun module
umount: /home/rados/qemu-raspbian-network/tmpmnt: target is busy
(In some cases useful info about processes that
use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1).)
pulseaudio: set_sink_input_volume() failed
pulseaudio: Reason: Invalid argument

More info:
I'm trying to run your project on Ubuntu 16.04.1 Xenial (4.4.0-59-generic).
I tried qemu-raspbian-network in Ubuntu 17.10, since it has qemu 2.10 which should support raspberry pi 2 better.
However I run into this error:
$ sudo ./qemu-pi.sh 2017-09-07-raspbian-stretch-lite.img
[sudo] password for nikolaos:
need tun module

This doesn't appear to be an error of qemu-raspbian-network but an Ubuntu / Gnome3 related error. Couldn't get it fixed though.
Is it possible to add more ram or more cpu cores to a (not running) raspian VM ?

It requires less fiddling with the system and creating tap interfaces, and it requires less broad sudoers permissions.
I did a very quick attempt at using it and just replacing the option didn't work. It doesn't run anything.
It would be nice because we would not need an external kernel
