Notice that etch doesn't use many of new syscalls introduced recently, and doesn't use TLS/NPTL on many archs. So it's not really a very hard test for qemu-user. > Are you people interested in running processes in a foreign chroot (i.e. > ARM chroot on x86 PC)? Yes. And I need to get my lazy ass off and start cleaning maemo/debian linux-user patches and propose them here. > I wanted to set up some daily automated tests which would fetch current > SVN, build for ARM, MIPS, PPC and SPARC targets, try to install Debian > with debootstrap in a chroot. Since what we are actually emulating, is linux kernel syscall interface, the most exhaustive test would be LTP. but debootstrapping debian is good smoketest. Other nice tests could be perl/python/glibc testsuites. -- "rm -rf" only sounds scary if you don't have backups
