Hello.
I am trying to boot a 2.6.10(this version specific) kernel image in a ppc emulated with qemu-system-ppc.
all i get in return is:
address@hidden:~/temp_sys/kern_img$ qemu-system-ppc -kernel "vmlinux" -hda disk.img -append "console=ttyS0 root=/dev/hda" -nographic -s

returning 0x00000000 from prom_init
I have tried with hda, without hda, with graphic / no graphic, console tty0,. ttyS0, ttyPZ0, novideo, framebuffer video, and pretty much all i found on the web regarding this error.
I don't know where to go next from here, i must be doing something wrong.
The process i usually do is:
make menuconfig
make
(ARCH, CROSS_COMPILE and PATH are set to match my cross_compiler)
I use generic PPC cpu / platform.
My env is xubuntu 12.04.
I am using a 3.4.3 gcc compiler(again i need to use this specific version)
i have tried to use the kernel image with a ppc filesystem, but no use. I pretty much out of options at the time of writing this.
Any advice ?
