[Qemu-devel] qemu-ppc crashing during debian guest install

Hello,
I'd like to ask you what would be the easiest way to figure out why the qemu
crashes during some activity on guest operating system. I am trying to
install latest debian on powerpc qemu, but it always crashes in the same
moment.

I am using latest svn checkout and compiling it for Windows. The guest is
started without -M option. I have taken kernel/initrd from the iso image as
the iso itself could not boot. Haven't checked if the same thing happens on
Linux yet (is it worth checking?).

Are there any obvious things to check that I might be missing?

Thanks in advance for any hints,
Bartek Celary

How does it crashes, what are the symptoms? At which moment of the
installation does it crashes?

It's strange, booting from CDROM work on Linux. It may be worth checking
on Linux, as it was working a few days ago.
