[Qemu-devel] Regression: QEMU 0.8.2 (and CVS) fails to boot a debian arm

[Aurelien Jarno]

Hi,

I have setup a debian arm (unstable) under QEMU, until now using version 
0.8.1 and a root on NFS.

I wanted to use the new SCSI card emulation introduced in QEMU 0.8.2, 
but it fails to boot (still with root on NFS). It freeze, the last 
message being:

INIT: version 2.86 booting

There is the same problem with QEMU CVS. Note that using root=/bin/sh 
works well using root on NFS and even using the emulated SCSI drive.

I can provide some more details if needed, just ask. Or please tell me 
how to debug that.

FYI, on an Athlon 64 @2.2 GHz, qemu-system-arm is faster than my NSLU2, 
and it has a lot more ram. That rocks!

Bye,
Aurelien
