I was finding articles/wikis how to emulate an arm linux (armel) on centos/ubuntu, then I found this from MDN: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Developer_Guide/Virtual_ARM_Linux_environment.
This article uses an old release by linaro which based on Ubuntu natty that can no longer be found on http://ports.ubuntu.com.
As Ubuntu says, armel would not be supported, that’s why the latest code name of ubuntu supporting armel is begin with ‘Q’.
I found another server release and a new nano, tried that with similar commands, notes are below:

Don’t forget to install ubuntu-destkop before trying to qemu-system-arm.
