NetBSD5.0.2/Sparc installed faultlessly and seamlessly using QEMU from
GIT with a Linux/x86_64 host.
I obtained the installation CD from
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/iso/5.0.2/sparccd-5.0.2.iso.
The ran these commands:
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 netbsd5.0.2-sparc 2G
$ qemu-system-sparc -cdrom sparccd-5.0.2.iso -hda netbsd5.0.2-sparc -m
96 -boot d -nographic
$ qemu-system-sparc -hda netbsd5.0.2-sparc -m 96 -boot c -nographic
One hiccup to be aware of: for vi to work in the guest, resize your
terminal window to 34 lines.
Packages are available from
PKG_PATH=http://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/sparc/5.0_2010Q2/All
Enjoy!
Thanks and Kudos to the QEMU and NetBSD teams.
