Re: [Qemu-arm] raspi2 vs Linux

[Ronald Dahlgren]

I have copied the image I was using to an sd card and tried booting it on actual hardware. The actual hardware doesn't make it past the GPU test screen, indicating an unbootable kernel. 

This tells me the problem is with my image and not with how I'm using qemu.

To be continued!

I am trying to setup an emulation environment on my workstation for development on a Linux environment destined to run on a Raspberry Pi. I'm using Arch Linux Arm.

I have done some fairly extensive searching and found:

This raspbian specific post: http://blog.3mdeb.com/2015/12/30/emulate-rapberry-pi-2-in-qemu/

This qemu wiki page: http://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/Platforms/ARM

This MSDN post: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/iliast/2016/11/10/how-to-emulate-raspberry-pi/

and finally, this post (and several mailing list posts) from Andrew Baumann: https://github.com/0xabu/qemu/wiki

Trying several iterations of these instructions all wind up with the qemu window appearing (initially in a "paused" state) with no output to any of the tabs.

My question is this: does anyone know of some other resources I may have missed previously that cover running a Linux distro under a qemu raspi2 emulation?

* Note: I have also tried included the Arch Linux Arm kernel params for the '-append' line.

Thanks in advance!
