Below is the error message:
emulator: ERROR: you must provide the name of a virtual machine to start
>> the emulator.

I tried following steps and the issue disappears.

$ . ./build/envsetup.sh
$ choosecombo
./out/host/darwin-x86/bin/emulator -system ./out/target/product/generic
-kernel ./prebuilt/android-arm/kernel/kernel-qemu -skindir
./development/emulator/skins -skin HVGA

Link to http://teavuihuang.com/android/ and select the skin you like.

Download the .zip and unpack it to android sdk skin folder. e.g. C:\android-sdk-windows-1.0_r1\tools\lib\images\skins.

start the emulator with parameter ‘-skin’. e.g. emulator -skin HVGA-P-G1.

HVGA-P-G1 is unpacked folder name.
