[Elecraft] K3 firmware updates under Linux/ARM?

[Harry Yingst via Elecraft]

I used to use Virtual Box to build VMs for task specific machines.
I'm considering going back to Linux and doing that again.

This is just a thought, but it may be possible to use Qemu to create an
i386 virtual machine and install a minimal desktop distro that you can
use the Elecraft utilities with.  I did nearly the same thing here using
VirtualBox on my amd64 (x86_64) desktop machine running Debian.  The VM
is running Debian Stable with a lightweight desktop environment and it
works just fine the few times I need it.
