Hello,
A want to run PowerPC using PXE boot. I typed simple:
qemu-system-ppc -boot n
The result is: "No valid boot device for G3 Beige machine", and ppc machine
doesn't start.
Trying on i386 platform and... everything OK: qemu-system-i386 -boot n starting
with no problem, and machine try boot from network.
Quick check of what google knows about "No valid boot device for G3 Beige
machine:
ppc.oldworld.c
#if 0
287 if (boot_device[i] >= 'a' && boot_device[i] <= 'f') {
288 ppc_boot_device = boot_device[i];
289 break;
290 }
291 #else
292 if (boot_device[i] >= 'c' && boot_device[i] <= 'd') {
293 ppc_boot_device = boot_device[i];
294 break;
295 }
296 #endif
297 }
298 if (ppc_boot_device == '\0') {
299 fprintf(stderr, "No valid boot device for G3 Beige
machine\n");
300 exit(1);
301 }
No n switch expected.
Does that mean that the network(PXE) boot for PowerPC is not implemented?
My Qemu version is 1.5.3 running on x86 Gentoo. On windows qemu (version
2.5.50) i get the same: PowerPC machine not starting, i386 starting.
