[Qemu-devel] "Kernel image must be specified" with qemu-system-arm

Hi,

I'm using Qemu SVN-5089. When using the pflash option to run U-Boot
with qemu-system-arm, Qemu tells me that I should specify a kernel
image:

$ qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -serial stdio -pflash u-boot.bin
Kernel image must be specified

I don't want to specify a kernel image since I want to use the U-Boot
bootloader. Not necessarly to run a Linux kernel.

Thanks,

Thomas

The versatile board doesn't currently implement flash. I suggest using 
the -kernel option to load uboot into ram.
