Hi,
I am trying to run qemu-system-ppc with a stripped down kernel ppc image based on 2.6.29. qemu never goes beyond
Calling quiesce ...
returning from prom_init
I haven't seen a solution to this posted on qemu page or in any customer forums. I found a bug for this but it seems to have expired. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-kvm/+bug/544330
Could someone help?
Here are the details:
qemu: version 1.0
Linux: kernel based on 2.6.9
Command line: qemu-system-ppc -hda linuxppc-disk.qcow2 -vnc localhost:1 -kernel LINUX/vmlinux -initrd LINUX/rImage.gz -append
console=ttyS0
(append console=ttyS0 didnt make any difference).
Here is the complete output with -nographic:
[~/Work/t/sc/common/samples/qemu] qemu-system-ppc -hda linuxppc-disk.qcow2 -kernel LINUX/vmlinux -initrd LINUX/rImage.gz -nographic
