hmm, okay obviously my fault, now 'qemu' binary seems to
work, but the redhat kernel still segfaults/coredumps
this is 2.4.18-27.7.x and I'm not able to get more than

# qemu-cvs-26.10.2003/i386/qemu -nographic -m 128 -snapshot -hda IMGs/TEST_32M.img -hdb IMGs/TEST_256M.img -kernel /usr/src/ALEXEY/kernel-2.4.18-27.7.x-P1/arch/i386/boot/bzImage -append "rw root=/dev/hda1"
warning: could not open /dev/net/tun: no virtual network emulation
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

works with vanilla 2.4.20,21,22,23-pre8
any hints for that one?

TIA,
Herbert
