Hi,

I have just install 0.5.4. I configured it with:

./configure --cc=3D"ccache gcc" --target-list=3D"i386-softmmu"

Install prefix    /tmp/QEMU
BIOS directory    /tmp/QEMU/share/qemu
binary directory  /tmp/QEMU/bin
Manual directory  /tmp/QEMU/share/man
ELF interp prefix /usr/gnemul/qemu-%M
Source path       /home/pavel/Tmp/QEMU/qemu-0.5.4
C compiler        ccache gcc
make              make
host CPU          i386
host big endian   no
target list       i386-softmmu
gprof enabled     no
static build      no
SDL support       yes
SDL static link   no
mingw32 support   no

qemu compiled and installed. It seems to work correctly, e.g.

qemu -boot a -fda DOS_bootable.img

gives me DOS prompt.

I have read that qemu can now install Windows XP, so I tried to boot from
Solaris-9-x86 install image with:

qemu -cdrom /tmp/Solaris-9-x86/sol-9-u6-install-x86.iso =20

But it gave me an error shown at
http://tmp.janik.cz/QEMU/Solaris-9-x86-install.png:

SunOS Secondary Boot version 3.00
prom_panic: Could not mount filesystem.
Entering boot debugger:
[1363d9]:

Exactly this error message is discussed at
http://supportforum.sun.com/sunos/index.php?t=3Dmsg&goto=3D2595&rid=3D0#m=
sg_2595
but the problem was about SATA devices not supported.

Does it work for you? How can I debug this?
