Hi,
I'd like to use the qemu arm system emulator to build software for an
arm platform.
One of the obstacles I'm facing is the lack of a block device driver
for arm. I have been able to run qemu with a root partition on the
host machine mounted via nfs. However, I'm finding this to be
extremely slow. (The tun/tap interface is much faster than user net
emulation, but it still seems very sluggish.)
Does anyone have a block device driver for arm? Anyone working on it?
Left to my own devices, I guess I could try writing an m-systems flash
emulator and mount the root via mtd. However, I have no experience
with the qemu internals. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
-Kevin
