Alternatively, you can invoke the `run` subcommand of the `bootimage` tool:
```
> bootimage run
```
By default it invokes the exact same QEMU command as above. Additional QEMU options can be passed after a `--`. For example, `bootimage run -- --help` will show the QEMU help. It's also possible to change the default command through an `run-command` key in the `package.metadata.bootimage` table in the `Cargo.toml`. For more information see the `--help` output or the [Readme file].
