Run the emulation with:

 qemu-system-mipsel -M malta -kernel output/images/vmlinux -serial stdio -drive file=output/images/rootfs.ext2,format=raw -append "root=/dev/hda" -net nic,model=pcnet -net user

The login prompt will appear in the terminal that started Qemu. The
graphical window is the framebuffer. No keyboard support has been
enabled.

Tested with QEMU 2.3.0

configs/qemu: specify drive image file format (raw) Specify that the drive image file format is raw to avoid warnings and restrictions. Also switch to -drive syntax for all configs.

qemu/mipsel-malta: update to use kernel 3.4.7 Signed-off-by: Gustavo Zacarias <gustavo@zacarias.com.ar> Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> 2012-07-31 23:13:11 +02:00
configs/qemu: bump to the latest linux version ppc-mpc8544ds: switch to custom kernel config since the new 4.3-shipped mpc85xx_basic_defconfig doesn't work with Qemu. Incidentally while cleaning it up it now seems to work fine with newer qemu versions. sparc64_sun4u: ditch ne2k driver since it's useless, and add the e1000 driver which works fine. x86: stick to 4.2.x kernels since 4.3 doesn't work right with uclibc (any variant) based toolchains.
