[Qemu-ppc] Help getting started

[Nathan Beasley]

I am trying to get QEMU running using the mpc8544ds machine type and I am completely new to QEMU.

 

I've been trying for the last couple days and looking through old mailing lists and forums and just not making any progress.

 

I was able to downloaded/build Qemu 2.0 without issues.

 

I was able to get the powerpc running off of Aurelien's debian images without an issues.

(qemu-system-ppc -hda debian_squeeze_powerpc_standard.qcow2 -nographic)

 

 

I've spent the last day trying to get this or the Freescale BSP images running using these and some other variations. When I do these I get no output.

(qemu-system-ppc -M mpc8544ds -hda debian_squeeze_powerpc_standard.qcow2 -nographic)

(qemu-system-ppc -M mpc8544ds -kernel uImage -nographic)

 

I have tried running them with -

 

My goal here is to just get started and have an image up and running so when I start trying to build an image from source I know I have a working environment.

 

Any suggestions on where to go from here to get a basic image running or source for a sample image to get off the ground?

 

Thanks in advanced for any help

Nathan
