[Qemu-devel] Sparc32 bash problem solved

[Blue Swirl]

For some reason, bash and strace didn't work inside Sparc32 system emulator. 
I finally found the reason by observing strange Linux behaviour relating to 
MMU no-fault mode. No fault mode seems to apply only to supervisor accesses, 
not user ones. The logic was not described like this in the manual, thank 
you very much.

Patched Qemu version can run several distro installers which crashed very 
early before. Bash and strace are okay.

There are still some bugs in the SCSI code, some installers didn't detect 
the drives or got the size wrong.
