Subject: [Qemu-devel] Emulation failed for OpenBSD guest
Date: Sun, 20 Dec 2009 15:04:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091220150434.GJ12659@x40.openbsd.home.lan> (raw)

Hi,

I'm using Fedora 12 with kernel 2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686.PAE and with qemu
0.11.0-12.fc12.i686, and I'm not able to start OpenBSD as a guest
operating system. See RedHat's bugzilla #508801.


Based on Fedora's spec file[ref#2] I've created RPM packages from

	origin/master
	origin/stable-0.11
	origin/stable-0.12

branches. I've removed all RedHat's patches from .spec file, to have
vanilla qemu package. All those packages with buildlogs are placed
online[#ref3].


I have three guest operating systems for testing: Fedora 12 i386,
OpenBSD 4.6-release i386, OpenBSD current i386.


I would like to ask on which branch of qemu I should focus on, as
currently with official Fedora 12 I cannot start any OpenBSD version,
but with my builds from lates sources of qemu I cannot start Fedora 12
i386 (OpenBSD are untested yet).


qemu*-0.12.0-00.1.stable.20091220.010130.fctest.i386.rpm are built from
origin/stable-0.12

qemu*-0.12.0-00.1.master.20091220.010130.fctest.i386.rpm are built from
origin/master

qemu*-0.11.0-12.1.stable.20091220.010130.fctest.i386.rpm are built from
origin/stable-0.11


With origin/master and origin/stable-0.12 after starting Fedora 12 i386
as guest OS CPU on host goes to 100% and grub is not even starting, with
origin/stable-0.11 grub starts, but then when Linux kernel is starting
nothing happens and CPU on host machine goes to 100% usage.


I cannot write code for issues described above, but if anyone is willing
to get involved and help me to resolve them I would appreciate that.
