But I see a PLIST and a PLIST.Linux in the qemu directory.

Shouldn't makefile pick the PLIST.Linux automatically or is it an
option that I have to manually activate?

I see in makefile:

.elif ${OPSYS} == "Linux"
USER_EMUL=              ${UE_ARCHS}
PLIST.nbd=              YES
PLIST.ivshmem=          YES

Should I edit this bit and point it to PLIST.Linux ?

I don't understand what these references to PLIST.nbd and
PLIST.ivshmem are for, because they are not in the directory.

Thanks
