Hi!

I tried to build qemu-system-sparc on a windows host using mingw and all =
steps=20
described in the qemu documentation. First of all, this doesn't work sinc=
e=20
qemu requires zlib. After compiling and installing zlib in the mingw=20
environment qemu builds fine. But when trying to test qemu using the=20
sparc-test image from the qemu homepage I run into two problems. At first=
,=20
qemu can't find the proll.bin file. Therefore I generated it using objcop=
y -O=20
binary proll.elf proll.bin on a sparc host.

Now qemu starts but crashes just after opening its window. This does not=20
happen to the precompiled version from =20
http://www.freeoszoo.org/ftp/qemu/win32/daily/, but this version does not=
=20
boot linux either. It semms to get stuck in an endless loop...

Now I have two questions:=20
Why does my compiled version crash? Did I forget something during the bui=
ld=20
process?=20

Does anyone else managed to successfully start linux using qemu-system-sp=
arc=20
on a windows host?

regards,
J=F6rg
