14.1.1. Quit QEMU from text mode
However, our QEMU setup captures Ctrl + C and other common signals and sends them to the guest, which makes it hard to quit QEMU for the first time since there is no GUI either.
The simplest way to quit QEMU, is to do:
Ctrl-A X
Alternative methods include:
-
quit
command on the QEMU monitor -
pkill qemu
