Subject: [Qemu-devel] NetBSD5.0.2 SPARC Success
Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2010 13:59:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C751399.103@bandsman.co.uk> (raw)

NetBSD5.0.2/Sparc installed faultlessly and seamlessly using QEMU from 
GIT with a Linux/x86_64 host.

I obtained the installation CD from 
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/iso/5.0.2/sparccd-5.0.2.iso.

The ran these commands:

$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 netbsd5.0.2-sparc 2G
$ qemu-system-sparc -cdrom sparccd-5.0.2.iso -hda netbsd5.0.2-sparc -m 
96 -boot d -nographic
$ qemu-system-sparc -hda netbsd5.0.2-sparc -m 96 -boot c -nographic

One hiccup to be aware of: for vi to work in the guest, resize your 
terminal window to 34 lines.

Packages are available from

PKG_PATH=http://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/sparc/5.0_2010Q2/All

Enjoy!

Thanks and Kudos to the QEMU and NetBSD teams.

-Nigel
