[Qemu-devel] QEMU linux on windows host booting hangs

hi,
problem while running qemu-system-arm.exe on windows host.
i'm emulating pxa270 ARM and compiled the QEMU with mingw toolchain to generate windows version of QEMU.
compilation went on successfully and was able to generate windows QEMU executable.
but while booting the kernel, qemu after sometime hangs.
Not sure why it hangs.
Anyone faced similar problem?
Regards,
Sathish.

I gave it a spin yesterday, it built and managed to boot a decent linux-2.6
system until the first user-space programs after init where running and
segfaulted thereafter.

I'm abroad the next days, but I'll definetly will help (or try to, I'm no
yet that into TCG, yet :-) to hunt those segfaults :-)
