->You only need one Slackware/x86 host machine to perform an installtion of Slackware ARM inside QEMU. A single machine can be the NFS server (used for the one time installation) and host Slackware ARM inside QEMU. So I will not be using the NFS method. SO you can just skip creating the network stuff for NFS.

If you run 'top' on your host OS, you will probably find QEMU busy using 100% of the CPU. Solution: be patient ;-)
