@ArielAbreu that's great! the only thing I think it feels a bit weird asking user for the root access just to download the file. Maybe we can simply fallback to the home directory like ~/.runtime?

How about using .runtime always? That way, you don't have to download it again for different projects.

@ArielAbreu sounds like a good idea 👍
maybe keep an optional local install as well? I guess it might be useful in some cases.

Added a --local option to save the kernel in the module's folder.

nice! one more thing to add https://github.com/runtimejs/runtime-tools/blob/fix-kernel-download/bin/runtime-qemu.js#L4 (so --local parsed as boolean)

Right, thanks!

OK to merge?

@ArielAbreu yeah, this is great! appreciate you fixing this!
this is going to be a major version because of new location for downloads
